Or maybe telling yourself that you've been too sensitive about something? Baseless beliefs about missing something or being wrong is not healthy and could refer to a mental health issue known as gaslighting.
"Self gaslighting makes us even doubt ourself and dismisses our emotions."- Gaslighting is manipulating someone that makes them questions the way they're reacting. It can happen at work, in a relationship or anywhere literally. This makes you feel like your emotions aren't improtant or like certain situations didn't happen at all. But this also happens when our inner voice becomes our enemy and that is called self gaslighting. This makes you self doubt yourself while dismissing your emotions.
"Fear of failure, low self-esteem are some of the reasons of self gaslighting."- Self gaslighting is often noticeable if you see these signs. Minimizing own feelings, constantly blaming yourself, questioning yourself and your memory and being your worst critic. Self gaslighting gives us a negative outlook on life. This behavior is generally seen when we fear failure, have low self-esteem or self trust, negative self worth, excessive anxiety etc. Someone who has been in experienced bullying or trauma is more likely to self gaslight.
