Any idea with what is gaslighting and how it can be possessed by people with personality disorders that includes being too charismatic and manipulative?
The history of the term is interesting and shows how popular culture can inform and invent terminology that psychology can then use.
The term 'Gaslighting' finds its origins in a 1938 stage play: According to the APA:
"Gaslight, a 1938 stage play and two later film adaptations (1940, 1944) in which a wife is nearly driven to insanity by the deceptions of her husband"
Many types of gaslighting have now been hypothesised including collective and individual subtypes. Certain political figures (You may be able to guess which ones) have been accused of gaslighting the general population.
This is a great question
