Smoke

"Gaslighting is like filling a room with smoke—after a while, it doesn’t matter if there’s really a fire. The smoke alone is enough to make you doubt what’s real and lose confidence in yourself. It’s not about proving if the fire exists; it’s about recognizing the smoke and getting out before it overwhelms you."
