Overview

Gaslighting often evokes disturbing emotions, low self-esteem, and cognitive dyscontrol by causing the individual to question his own abilities for thinking, perceiving, and reality testing. Along with the emergence of self-doubt and diminished self-esteem there also may develop confusion, anxiety, depression, and in a few cases, psychosis. As a form of projective identification, gaslighting serves a defensive function. The defenses of denial and projection occur first, and they are followed by some interpersonal manipulation that is an enactment of the subject's wish to control the other person. Some psychic content which is denied as belonging to the self is projected on to another person. The victimizer's wish to control the object is first actualized when he or she is able to manipulate the object in such a way (as, for example, by shaming him) that the object begins to doubt his own judgment.
