Hi Im having mind games played with me at the moment and its driving me insane.
This is a list of what I want to know whether or not it's emotional abuse/manipulation:
Constant criticism of my beliefs and opinions - telling me I'm wrong ALL the time and forcing other opinions onto me.
Telling me I'm stupid every day.
Starting arguments about nothing - literally things as simple as how much brown sauce I put on food (seriously).
Telling me lies about things that have supposed to have happened in certain towns and cities to scare me from going.
Commenting on my dress sense because I'm expected to dress like an old man from 30 onwards.
Commenting on my shoes - telling me I should not go out in pumps saying I should wear formal sheos (the old man thing again) - trying to make out that NO-ONE wears certain things when half the people do!
Trying to make up things about hygiene - I'm very clean and this is criticised... if I decide say on Sundays to not shower this is criticised... either way whatever I do.
Engineering situations and arguments that they knwo will push my buttons and start arguments from nowhere like they like it.
Telling me I should only go out to ceratin places and throwing tantrums if I go to places that are dispaproved of.
Using guilt trips - like if Ive had money lent to me getting it constantly thrown back in my face.
I get verbal abuse in the street (homophobic) and all kinds of weird things happen because the area is backwards - this is not believed. Apparently I imagine it but I don't. They just black it out and try and make out I'm mad.
Is this emotional manipulation and abuse?
