What is it called?

[Mirah]

When you are not mad, but someone says you are mad and then that makes you mad?

I am not talking about here other or trolling.

Another example," Mirah you seem really stressed" and then they give you two examples that are unrelated and months apart where they think you must be stressed because if it.

Is that gas-lighting?

I think it depends on the person saying these things. If they're trying to piss you off, or make you feel stupid then it's kinda like gaslighting. It's not exactly gaslighting, but it's similar.

gaslighting is manipulating someone psychologically into thinking something that isn't true, so in that sense, perhaps. An example might be your parents. If your boyfriend knows that you're very close with your parents, and he tries to disrupt that relationship, it could be gaslighting. He might try and poison the way you feel about them by creating lies. Maybe he'll say that your mother told him something upsetting.

"Why do you have to look so autistic all the time, Wacky?"

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Sounds like she wants to give you a criticism but can't justify it so she's trying to make you into the person she thinks needs correction, even though you're not that person enough of the time to actually merit the criticism but she needs to feel like a boss so fuck her.

 

[Mirah]

Yes.
Fuck her.
