Is it normal that i'm a compulsive liar?

54% Normal
11 Comments

It really is something I feel awful about. It actually makes me cry sometimes that this is the way i've turned out. But I constantly tell lies. To my mother, my entire family, my lovely Fiance. It just happens. A small story progresses into a bigger, more imaginative dramatic one! Even when I thought I was pregnant, I dragged it out and made out I miscarried> I could have, but lied and said i definitley did. Please don't judge me wrongly. I try and change it. Every day and i'm really sorry for it. I want to be a better person.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you are seeking attention. This isn't a criticism and nor is it something you can easily change.

    The one thing I will say is that people are much more observant than we think. Even if they look like they believe you, people sometimes know the truth. I would never ever want the reputation of a liar. It really isn't worth the risk for something so ephemeral as attention.

    i used to be and still have a tendency too...for me it was based on shame that i felt that i was boring, stupid, ugly, etc...amd by lieing i was interesting, smart, and sexy....i couldnt keep all my lies straight...i felt people wouldmt like me if they knew the real me...so i stopped lying and it was true...keep lying its a lot better...

    I do it it just that maybe you feel guilty about the truth or you just lie its noramal to change it all you have to do is

    NEVER TELL A LIE

    if this never works takes some rubber bands put 10 or 14 on then each time you tell the truth you take one off but then when you tell a lie you add one on its very easy to change

    Tell the truth, and come clean about the lies that you have told. I think that you are abusing the trust of others around you. If you start telling the truth about the lies that you have told, maybe it will motivate you to start telling the truth more often. Just because you get a little attention from a story doesn't mean you must go on with it. I think that someone would find it just as interesting if you thought you were pregnant and it turned out wrong. That would be a way more fun story of how silly you were for thinking that you were pregnant and it turned out to be a false alarm. I think that you will learn to appreciate the truth better and your loved ones will forgive you for the lies that you told. You should come clean. Lying is not healthy, you should be proud of who you really are.

    Why dont you try to exagerate your story but not lie about it. Say it like it sounds like something else but make sure you dont like about what youre saying.

    its ok..if you try you will get better. i have told some crazy lies when i am drunk if we were all honest we have all done some crazy sh#t. and it sound like you don't want to lie.

    try puting a rubber band around your wrist and switching the arm it is on every time you lie.

    it depends...do you sort of believe your lies? because if you do then you could be a pathological liar.
