7 Things to Say When Someone Gaslights You

Imagine you have a serious talk with your partner—yet when you bring it up a couple weeks later, they say: “We never had that conversation! You must be thinking of something else.” Or your boss gives you an assignment but omits crucial information, later berating you for falling short and claiming you were provided with the exact instructions you know you never received. Maybe you keep hearing that you’re overreacting, too sensitive, or misinterpreting things.All are possible examples of gaslighting. The (frequently misused) term describes “the act of when someone is talking to or communicating with you, making you feel like your reality is being questioned,” says Laura Sgro, a therapist in Los Angeles who specializes in helping people navigate dysfunctional families or relationships.

General election 2024: the fight for the Gen Z vote is heating up on TikTok

She reckons that Labour are currently winning the TikTok war based on their engagement metrics — the total number of views, likes and comments. Some of their most effective content is simple Tory-bashing, such as a fake dating app profile of Rishi Sunak with the caption “It’s a no from me” (195,000 views, 17,500 likes). Or a video of a pothole that leads to Rishi Sunak’s face, captioned “POV: You ask why there are so many potholes in the UK” (487,000 views, 52,900 likes). But Smith-Galer also warns against cheap tactics that don’t exactly translate to real life efficacy. “Labour have won the engagement and output race so far, but an over-reliance on memes is a brand strategy from the early 2020s,” Galer says. “It works for awareness raising about a brand name, and works less well for direc...

How Climate Change Is Punishing Asthma Sufferers

Jillian Alfieri didn’t even make it through her first seven months before asthma started having its way with her. The now 13-year-old had just been placed in her stroller for an early evening walk when her parents noticed that she seemed to be battling to breathe. “At first, we thought she was choking,” says her father, Rob, a stay-at-home parent in New York City. “She couldn’t catch her breath or make a sound. She finally started to cry, and we looked at the base of her neck and saw it going in and out as she was trying to inhale.”Rob and his wife, Jaimee, an HR director for a Manhattan law firm, rushed Jillian to the pediatrician, who put her on a nebulizer mask to stabilize her breathing and diagnosed the episode either as a possible one-off that would not repeat itself or a first bout ...
