You won’t even realize it’s happening.
That’s what makes it dangerous. The worst manipulation feels like your own choice.
You keep thinking about that one moment.
“Why did I say yes?”
“Why did I agree?”
Deep inside, you didn’t want to.
But still… you did.
You feel tired after talking to certain people.
Not physically. Mentally.
Something feels off.
But you can’t explain it clearly.
Slowly…
you stop trusting your own thoughts.
You start asking yourself,
“Am I the problem?”
