When women show up with black eyes and bruises, or report that their partners curse and scream, we rally around and point fingers at the monsters in their lives. When you fall out of love, fight all the time, never have sex — it’s clear that the relationship’s deteriorating.
But when we face a more hidden and ephemeral problem of tattered self-esteem, cloudy vision and forgotten dreams, we end up pointing the finger at ourselves. Something is wrong – but we just can’t give it a name or put our fingers on it.
My book gives that something a name: the Gaslight Effect. And when something is named and understood, it can be recognized and healed.
