My partner always turns arguments around on me. If I bring up something he did, like ignoring me for days, he denies it, says I’m overreacting, then makes me feel like I’m the problem. I read about DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender), and it sounds exactly like him. How do you deal with this in a relationship? I’m starting to question my own sanity.
Jessica, that gaslighting is toxic poison. Your sanity is not the problem; his manipulation is. You can’t reason with someone who twists reality to escape accountability. Your energy is your armor
. Protect it at all costs. When he starts that DARVO script, refuse to play the part. State your truth once, firmly, then disengage. Don’t let him drain you. Reclaim your power and set iron-clad boundaries now! You are the one in control of your own mind. Stay strong. ![]()
