Recovering from gaslighting will be much easier if you have a support team to assist you. Therapists and counselors are an important part of your support team because they can help you recover from gaslighting by supporting you and listening to you. They can also help you address the depression, anxiety, and other stress you may be feeling as a result of being gaslighted. For example, if the gaslighting happened during a long-term relationship, seeking professional help can assist you in identifying and dealing with effects of the abuse. Even if it was a short-lived relationship, adding a professional to your support team can help teach you coping strategies. Talk to a counselor about what you have been through. You can ask your physician, human resources representative, or school counselor for a referral to a counselor. If you are experiencing anxiety or depressive symptoms or other significant problems coping, a counselor can discuss treatment options with you. When someone gaslights you, they often isolate you from other people in your life that care about you. They convince you that they are the only person that knows what is right for you. Rebuilding your relationship with family, friends, and other people in your life and relying on them as a part of your support team will help you recover from gaslighting. Ask someone close to you to just spend time with you. You all don't have to go anywhere or do anything. Try saying, "Can we spend a little time together just chilling?" Accept their invitations when friends and family members ask you to go places with them. Start out spending small amounts of time together. For example, go for a frozen yogurt or a cup of coffee. One way to recover from gaslighting is to connect with people that have been through similar experiences. Hearing their stories and how they recovered from gaslighting can provide you with strategies and tips that will help you overcome it as well. Being a part of a support group can also help boost your self-esteem from the positive interactions and create new social relationships for you. Check with organizations in your community for victims of domestic abuse, your religious leader, or a mental health professional for suggestions on finding a support group near you. Consider joining an online forum or support group if you aren't able to attend an in-person support group.

If you were caught red-handed in the moment, or if your teacher has irrefutable evidence against you, you should confess. The worst thing you can do after being caught cheating is to dig yourself into a deeper hole. While it can be scary to be completely honest with an authority figure, it may be your only choice. It's also the easier thing to do, because you won't have to rely on being a good actor or keeping your story straight. Think about the last time someone lied to your face, and you knew they were lying. Not only did it probably not feel great, it probably also increased your anger. Don't make your situation worse by lying. You got caught doing something wrong, and you should act sorry. Whether or not you genuinely feel it in your heart, act like you regret your decision to cheat. If you admit that you cheated with a huge smile on your face, you'll most likely get a harsher punishment simply to teach you a lesson. Be open about how you feel. If you feel the urge to cry, let those tears flow. The more emotion that your teacher sees from you, the better. If the authority figure sees that you are upset, they may be more lenient with punishment. Trying to play it cool is likely to backfire, because they'll think you need to be taught a lesson. This doesn't mean you should start spouting off excuses, but rather give some rationale behind your actions. Instead of letting the teacher or counselor assume you are lazy or simply mischievous, try to offer them a reason they can understand. For example, tell them you were overwhelmed by the course material and simply were terrified of failing. It doesn't undo the cheating, but everyone can relate to being scared. Make sure to tell your teacher that you studied for the test. It will look better for you if they know you did try to do well on your own.

There are some phone apps and websites that will let you try on different hairstyles over a photograph of yourself. It's important not to be rash with your decision. If you decide that you want to go from very long to very short hair, give yourself at least a few days to think about it before you decide to do it. You may find that you're just feeling unhappy, and once that passes, you might miss your long hair. If you're planning on making a significant change to your hairstyle, you might want to consult a professional to make sure that it goes exactly right. You can always trim your hair at home. Many professionals recommend cutting your hair wet, as it is easier to manage and control. Some professionals also recommend cutting hair dry, as it allows you to see the effects of the cut right away and adjust for any quirks such as cowlicks or curls. If you cut your hair while it's wet, cut it at least a few inches longer than you want it, as it will shrink up and look shorter once it is dry. (Some people have reported that their hair shrinks up to 4 inches from wet to dry.) Dry cuts are more likely to produce uneven hair. Cutting hair dry requires very sharp sheers. Cutting dry hair will dull the blade edge very quickly, which pushes ends instead of cutting them, leading to uneven lines. Most professionals cut the hair while it is wet and refine it once the hair is dry. Doing this will let you produce better looking results while giving you a chance to fix minor errors. If you're cutting your hair wet, shampoo and condition it, remove excess water by wrapping your hair in a towel and squeezing it, then comb your damp hair straight. If you want to dry cut your hair, wash and dry it, part it where you would normally part it, then get it as close as possible to how you would normally wear it. If you normally straighten your hair, straighten it before cutting. Avoid putting any products into your dry hair before cutting it, as these could make it more difficult to properly evaluate your cut.
