Gaslight!

Do not allow a person to make you think they’re the victim when they’re clearly the assaulter.
Some people thrive on your insecurities.
They win discussions by throwing guilt on you,
Making you doubt your own actions,
Saying things like ‘You’re imagining all this. It’s only in your head’.
This is a narcissist’s way of being the upper hand
And never owning up to their actions,
By keeping you in doubt all the time,
While always wearing a mask of confidence that makes everything they say sound very real.
You start to wonder if you’re truly imagining everything and being unfair to them, 
When in reality you’re just being manipulated and your reality is being altered to their benefit.
As time passes, they strip you off your ability to make rational judgements and your perception of reality becomes completely disoriented.
Always trust your gut feeling.
See the pattern.
If a person disregards your feelings by turning tables and making themselves the victim instead,
Face them.
If it doesn’t work,
Walk away at all costs.
This is a critical threat to your mental stability.
