Gaslighting is a common form of abuse men face, an estimated 71% of abused men have questioned their own sanity, been lied to, and made to believe they are crazy. It is common for women to use this form of abuse specifically since it is done from the shadows, and naturally, women are risk adverts.

For example, if your spouse hits you, and then acts like that never happened and that you are making it up, that is physical abuse plus gaslighting. It also affects your relationship with others and especially the family that you have strong bonds. Insecurity is another common sense one gets when victim to this mental abuse, if they change the subject and often don’t listen to how you feel about something, especially in questioning your memory of events, even more so if it’s events they have caused, then these are signs of your abuse. Commonly victims of this have feelings of isolation, loneliness, and feelings of not being heard. Even more so if your needs seem unimportant to them. People who are preyed on this often feel they are not good enough, even if they give it they’re all.
For those who see this abuse, it may escalate further into physical or monetary forms of abuse even, if one can get away with lying and trickery, then what else can they get away with? Abusers like to push boundaries and explore what they can get away with, such as lying can lead to physical harm, can then lead to divorce since all she then wants is your wallet, then the state gives her that and then some.
