#### Definition
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation that involves making someone question their own sanity or perception of reality. 

It is a type of emotional abuse that often occurs in abusive relationships. The gaslighter deliberately and systematically feeds false information to the victim, leading them to question what they know to be true, often about themselves. This can make the victim doubt their memory, perception, and even their sanity.
