I don't think it's always intentionally manipulative (though of course sometimes it is). Therapy can help determine whether it's intentional or not.
So if it’s not intentional does the mentally disordered partner go see a psychologist and psychiatrist?
Otherwise outcome is the same: major disagreements about what actually just happened or was said.
If someone isn't intentionally misremembering something, then they can acknowledge that their memory might not be correct and move on. Just because you remember something differently than someone else doesn't mean you're mentally disordered.
Lol.
My asd husband will insult someone during an argument and two minutes late deny he said that when called out.
It’s pathetic.
This lying and deflecting and DARVO is a Maladaptive Coping Mechanism.
Not trauma. It’s a choice. They learned to deny deny deny and rewrite history in order to save their image and ego, at the expense of any relationships.
It worked well for them, as a child, to lie and argue rather than take responsibility and apologize. Their parents gave up, let it go and raised a monster.
Gray rock that a-hole.
