"Gaslighting" has another name, and like gaslighting, nobody wants to talk about it either.

One result of gaslighting is that many perfectly functional, mentally healthy people end up in the psychiatric system. Including professionals like doctors, scientists, engineers, lawyers.

The other name is "organized stalking." OS is described in a brief e-booklet at this link, for any who may be interested:

I read about OS in conspiracy sites before, and swore I was a victim of it and may still be. My whole family thinks im insane to believe this. Glad to see it posted here a non conspiracy website.

Is organized stalking really seen as only a conspirator claim? Little kids in cliques at grade school and high school do this. Wouldn't organized stalking fall under workplace bullying too? Or am I completely thinking of something else?

It's a shame that such an idea is seen as insane or crazy but I guess that's the point of organized stalking, so that their victim will be seen as insane or crazy.

Organized stalking in the workplace, probably because it is so well witnessed that those who want it covered up can`t deny it, has been recognized by academics. They call OS in the workplace "mobbing."

For a psychiatrist or police officer or judge to accept that mobbing in the workplace happens, but it could not - no, no, no absolutely could not - happen outside the workplace, is itself delusion!

Unfortunately Gaslighting by mental health professionals is more common than you think. I have been a victim of this from my counselor and am currently in litigation about this matter.

I have studied Gaslighting in depth. Understanding how gaslighters think is the key to protecting yourself in the future. They desire power and are drawn to positions of power. Police, judges, counselors, doctors and lawyers just to name some. When they speak of emotions, it’s a “matter of fact” tone of voice that gives them away. They can not fathom how anyone else feels and carry a deeply rooted sense of entitlement.

However, people without the capacity for empathy play a vital role in our society. Not all** of the people who do these jobs are sociopaths** but trauma nurses, vets that put animals down, morticians, corners just to name a few. Please note I did not say everyone with these jobs and please don’t take offense.

Having 15 months of counseling records and sorting fact from fiction was very traumatic for me. Since picking it apart and filing a law suit, I have come to the conclusion that gaslighters are truly not aware of their behavior. Their memory is horrible, they forget things just as soon as they do them. If my counselor couldn’t remember what he had for breakfast, how can he possibly remember anything from my session? He would tell me one thing, and then record the opposite.

They have very black and white thinking and do not believe something unless it has a yes or no answer, 0 or 1.

If you feel like you have been the victim of Gaslighting or do not “click” with your counselor, change immediately without hesitation. Do not feel guilty, they won’t give you a second thought.
