They're NOT Gaslighting You w/ Dr. Isabelle Morley

from Eyes Wide Open with Nick Thompson

Join us as we sit down with Dr. Isabelle Morley, psychologist, couples counselor, and author of the groundbreaking new book "They're Not Gaslighting You: Ditch Therapy Speak and Stop Hunting for Red Flags in Every Relationship."     Dr. Morley is here to help decode the "therapy speak" that has infiltrated our social media, relationships, and communication. Many of us are confused and misunderstanding what these terms actually mean.    In this eye-opening episode, we discuss the truth about narcissism, gaslighting, and boundaries, cutting through the social media noise to reveal what these terms *really* mean.    Discover why throwing around clinical diagnoses can be harmful and how genuine compassion can pave the way for healthier connections.     Dr. Morley doesn't just diagnose the problem; she offers solutions.    Learn how to spot real red flags (in yourself and others!), navigate the complexities of modern dating and relationships, and how Dr. Morley's book opens the door to meaningful conversations about "therapy speak."   Tune in to gain a fresh perspective on "therapy speak" so you can ditch the buzzwords and approach the world with your eyes wide open.  Chapters   00:00 Introduction to Dr. Isabelle Morley and Her Work 05:03 Navigating Life Changes: Moving and Relationships 09:53 Understanding Therapy Speak and Its Impact 15:10 The Misuse of Mental Health Terms in Social Media 20:03 The Nuances of Mental Health Diagnosis 24:49 The Importance of Context in Mental Health 25:49 Navigating Relationships with Narcissists 27:10 The Misuse of Therapy Terminology 29:35 Defining Gaslighting: A Deeper Look 30:02 The Consequences of Misdiagnosis and Labeling 32:21 Gaslighting Beyond Romantic Relationships 37:52 Red Flags: Understanding Their True Meaning 47:40 The Weaponization of Boundaries 48:37 Understanding Boundaries: Definitions and Misuse 52:32 The Importance of Communication in Setting Boundaries 54:01 Self-Awareness and Personal Growth in Boundary Setting 56:44 Weaponization of Therapy Terms: Boundaries and Control 01:00:04 The Role of Social Media in Mental Health Awareness 01:01:53 Key Takeaways from 'They're Not Gaslighting You' Find Dr. Isabelle Morley here: PRE-ORDER "They're Not Gaslighting You" Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drisabellemorley/  Website: https://drisabellemorley.com/    Find Nick Thompson here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nthompson513/ | https://www.instagram.com/the_ucan_foundation/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EyesWideOpenContent LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickthompson13/  UCAN Foundation: https://theucanfoundation.org/  Website: https://www.engagewithnick.com/
