I Am a Compulsive Liar

I Have A Lying Problem

By: wyattbarrs
Written on November 4th, 2011
throughout my entire life i have gone through these "phases" where i lie consistantly or i lie on a more casual basis however what sends me on my lying spells is when i get caught in a lie. i dont lie to cover up lies but rather just tell new ones all over the place i know i need help and a few hours ago i just accepted i had a problem, but the problem is i am not sure where to go from here. you see the truth feels akward when it comes from my lips when i lie it feels right and it feels natural although i know that im wrong i just cant stop and this is where the problem lies. for my i have no idea how to fix this and i have no idea how long i can go telling the truth, and all of these things are steps that ive been told are imperative for me to stop yet i cant even start on the basics to fix my problem so how can i stop?

    The most effective way to get helf is by talking to a therapist - that will help you figure out why you are lying and help you stop. IT might mot be the easiest thing to do but its the only way to ensure that you are taking care of it - and you will feel confidant that you are in control.

    Try it - youl feel better after...
