In this eye-opening episode of Narcissists, Gaslighters and Cheaters, Oh My!, hosts Behk and LAH sit down with Charlotte Rivers, a brave woman who shares her unsettling experience within the gaming community, which was marred by toxic masculinity. Charlotte takes us through her journey of finding a supportive, inclusive gaming community—only for it to be shattered by rampant sexism and harassment.Charlotte opens up about her experience with a local gaming store owner who crossed boundaries with inappropriate comments and even coerced her into an uncomfortable back rub. When Charlotte stood up for herself, she was banned from both the store and the wider gaming community. Even worse, no one came to her defense, and she was left to face the fallout alone.The conversation takes a darker turn when Charlotte explains how, after leaving a truthful review of the store, the owner and his wife launched an online smear campaign against her. They accused her of cheating on her deployed husband and even threatened her.This episode is a sobering reminder of the importance of calling out toxic behavior, especially when it comes from men who have the power to protect or harm women in these spaces. We discuss how the gaming world—and society at large—needs men to step up and challenge harmful behavior when they see it, rather than stay silent.Charlotte's strength and resilience in the face of this injustice are truly inspiring. Listen in to hear how she fought back and how we can all work together to create safer, more respectful environments for everyone.Join us for this raw conversation, and don't forget to subscribe for more episodes of real talk on toxic behavior, safety, and standing up for yourself.Content Warning: This episode discusses various forms of toxic behavior, narcissistic abuse, and any topics that may disturb some listeners.

Welcome back to Narcissists, Gaslighters, and Cheaters, Oh My!—we're back with regular programming and we've got a powerful episode to kick things off! Hosts Behk and LAH are joined by Katie, a woman who's been through the emotional wringer in relationships that seemed to repeat the same painful patterns.In this raw and revealing conversation, Katie opens up about her marriage to an ex-husband who was emotionally checked out, cheated, and even refused to attend the birth of their third child. She shares the deep anxiety and self-doubt that grew in her as she tried to make sense of a marriage with someone who didn't show up, emotionally or physically.Katie then takes us through her first relationship after the divorce—one that, at first, seemed promising but soon mirrored the emotional neglect she'd experienced before. With a partner who traveled often, refused to validate her feelings, and consistently shut down when she opened up about her triggers and past trauma, Katie's struggle to find support continued.This episode is a deep dive into how emotional neglect and narcissistic behavior can warp your sense of self, and the repetitive patterns that can show up in relationships when healing is still a work in progress. Join us for this intimate, vulnerable, and empowering conversation—because breaking the cycle starts with recognizing it.Content Warning: This episode discusses various forms of narcissistic behavior, and any topics that may disturb some listeners.

Debbie McRae takes on a word that she hears daily in her practice – gaslighting.  Why do sex and porn addicts gaslight, and what can their partners do about it? This webinar covers what exactly gaslighting is, what purpose it serves, what it might sound like, and what you can do about it.    TAKEAWAYS: [:30] Gaslighting is a term that Debbie McRae hears every single day in her practice.  [1:21] Simple and clinical definitions of gaslighting and common dialogue used in gaslighting.  [5:13] Acknowledgement of the seriousness of an addiction means the addict would have to do something about it.  [6:19] Gaslighting partners are trying to avoid facing reality and avoid confrontation.  [8:01] Increased defensiveness and denial are common signs of gaslighting.  [9:10] Addicts often believe they are the exception to the rules. [10:09] Shame and extended periods of getting away with gaslighting are common reasons addicts continue to gaslight.  [11:25] Gaslighters have a style – the intimidator, the good guy, and the glamor gaslighter. [15:24] DARVO – deny, attack, reverse the victim and offender – aims to shift the blame off the addict.  [16:35] The danger of minimizing rather than validating, withholding, countering, diverting and discrediting, deflection and distraction, and stereotypical labeling. [22:49] Using loving words and rewriting history are confusing ways to manipulate a hurt partner. [24:30] How can you stop the gaslighting as an addict?  [28:18] What can the betrayed partner do about gaslighting?  [34:50] The importance of focusing on your own recovery.  [38:01] Is it normal that my spouse won't even talk to me about his porn addiction?  [44:21] How much responsibility do I need to take for my addict partner's behavior?  [48:35] Why does my partner blame me when I am blindsided by his behavior?  [52:44] How can I identify real abuse versus the mental illness that is adding to the issues?  [55:00] How can I handle my partner's passive aggressive behavior?    RESOURCES: Seekingintegrity.com Email Tami: Tami@Seekingintegrity.com Sexandrelationshiphealing.com Intherooms.com Out of the Doghouse: A Step-by-Step Relationship-Saving Guide for Men Caught Cheating, by Robert Weiss Prodependence: Moving Beyond Codependency, by Robert Weiss Sex Addiction 101: A Basic Guide to Healing from Sex, Porn, and Love Addiction, by Robert Weiss Cruise Control: Understanding Sex Addiction in Gay Men, by Robert Weiss Seeking Integrity Podcasts are produced in partnership with Podfly Productions.    QUOTES “Gaslighting is a power trip. People gaslight because it gives them power.”  “Gaslighting keeps the betrayed partner constantly on their toes and on high alert.”  “Gaslighting can be really hard for the betrayed partner to identify.”  “Betrayed partners have superior memories because they are connected to the prefrontal cortex.” “If you are a liar, know that you are a gaslighter and you have to be honest with yourself.”

Gaslighting is a form of manipulation that often occurs in abusive relationships. Gaslighting comes in many forms such as blatant lies, denying, using what you love against you, words versus actions and so much more. Gaslighters can be sneaky with how they manipulate you, and you may not realize it until later. In a previous video, 5 Phrases Gaslighters Use to Control You, we talked about some gaslighter phrases. In this video, we'll dive deeper into the gaslighters themselves to help you protect yourself from gaslighting abuse.

Dr. Rob talks with Josh Nichols about common gaslighting tactics addicts and manipulative people tend to use. We like to think the world might be full of these calculating abusers, but often times these tactics are used as a knee-jerk reaction and come from a place of survival. Today, Josh offers some tips on how to spot a gaslighter and what you might be feeling from some of their gaslighting actions.    TAKEAWAYS: [2:10] A little bit about Josh and why he wanted to talk about gaslighting.  [2:55] What's the difference between gaslighting and lair?   [5:40] Victims feel like they're going crazy and feel such relief when a therapist finally validates their thoughts. [8:30] Why do people gaslight other people?  [10:45] A common tactic these people use is to confirm your belief in that person and then they will use this as leverage to deny your own reality.  [14:00] These people tend not to be psychopaths or sociopaths. They're just trying to maintain control.  [17:25] A person will often try to use different tactics to cover up their gaslighting. What does this look like?  [18:00] There are three archetypes you have to look out for: The blame shifter, the victim, and the self-shamer.  [24:25] Unfortunately, gaslighters love to exploit your trust and sense of safety you have with that person.   RESOURCES: Sex and Relationship Healing @RobWeissMSW Sex Addiction 101  Seeking Integrity Cruise Control: Understanding Sex Addiction in Gay Men  Prodependence: Moving Beyond Codependency Out of the Doghouse by Robert Weiss Familysolutionsok.com QUOTES: “These people are exploiting some kind of vulnerability and they can exploit the trust and love in the relationship.” “Addicts have maladaptive coping mechanisms and are really good survivors, and gaslighting becomes one of the tools.” “Gaslighters have three different types: The blame shifter, the victim, and the self-shamer.”  

Author and researcher, Shannon Rowan joins me again today on the podcast 03/07/24 to catch...

Gaslighting starts with a seed, which can be as simple as a word or a phrase, like "Seal Team 6." Lies and fictitious fear-mongering are added to the mix, the way a chef adds spices and flavor... and then the gaslight is disseminated to the Clone Troopers for rapid spreading on news channels, papers and programs to reach as many those still asleep as possible. Watch and listen in real time today as we walk through the anatomy of the Seal Team 6 gaslight and expose how the Deep State tries to keep you angry and afraid.

Gaslighting. It's an increasingly common term that dates back to a 1938 British Play, Gas Light, and subsequent movies focused on the power of manipulation in relationships. In the original play, a manipulative husband makes his wife feel as if she's going insane by telling her that perceptions are inaccurate when she notices that the house lights are mysteriously dim. In today's world, the term is used to describe manipulative actions that are geared toward making a person doubt their perceptions and sense of reality. Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse that impacts mental health in lasting ways, yet it can be difficult to spot this toxic behavior and heal from its pernicious effects. Join Dr. Carla and Dr. Robin Stern, licensed psychoanalyst, author, and co-founder of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence. As the author of The Gaslight Effect: How to Spot and Survive the Hidden Manipulation Others Use to Control Your Life and The Gaslight Effect Recovery Guide, Dr. Stern brings her wisdom and wealth of experience to help illuminate the dark realm of gaslighting and how to find emotional healing. With strength, increased emotional intelligence, and support, you can learn to spot gaslighters and recover from the toxic impact of gaslighting. Note: This episode contains sensitive information; listener discretion is advised. If you or someone you know is suffering from abuse, please reach out for support immediately. In the United States, you can reach help 24/7 by calling 911, the Suicide or Crisis Hotline at 988, or the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233. No form of abuse is acceptable; you deserve to feel safe, loved, and supported.
