A Gaslighting Journal is a structured documentation system designed to help abuse survivors counter psychological manipulation by creating factual, timestamped records of events. Gaslighting is a form of emotional abuse in which an abuser seeks to make their victim doubt their own memory, sanity, or perception of reality.
Why Use a Gaslighting Journal?
Over time, gaslighting erodes the victim’s confidence and self-trust, potentially leading to depression, anxiety, and complex PTSD. The primary purpose of a Gaslighting Journal is to provide an external anchor to reality - a place where facts are recorded objectively, away from an abuser’s influence, so the survivor can reference their experiences when self-doubt creeps in.
Rather than relying on memory alone (which gaslighters deliberately confuse and undermine), survivors have concrete documentation that validates their lived experience.
