In this episode, we delve into the manipulative tactic known as DARVO—Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender. Often employed by individuals to deflect blame and invert the roles in a conflict, DARVO can leave victims feeling confused and doubting their own experiences. We explore real-life examples, discuss its psychological impact, and provide insights on how to recognise and respond to this form of manipulation. Understanding DARVO is crucial in identifying and addressing abusive behaviours in various relationships.
