Stalking

[H2O Man]

13. Thank you!

I had an "early night" last night. I had taken the dog out after dark, and I fell hard on the ice, and was pretty darned sore. Indeed, I experienced trouble getting back to my feet, and will say that having an excited dog dancing on me was not helpful! Ha!

Any how, as I was laying down inside the house -- with the dog comfortably resting on my feet -- I was thinking about this topic. And about our conversation about you door. About how these types of things are forms of psychological manipulation -- also known as mental torture, at least in my book -- where the victim tends to doubt themselves, even to the point where they think others will consider them confused or paranoid if they say what they think. An example could be the police failure to respond to a call about an ahar door.

Now, I'm old. I've heard my kids who are social workers talk about "gas lighting." I can't remember if I ever heard that back in the days that I was employed. But when I was laying there, thinking about this, I thought it applied. So I got up and habbled to my computer, and looked up "gas lighting." It makes getting older more fun when you learn something new every day!
