I lie all of the time. It’s starting to get out of control and I don’t know why I do it. I lie about relationships, illnesses and many more things. It does not matter who I’m lying to I will lie to everyone almost every conversation. Even when it doesn’t benefit me, I don’t even have the compulsion to lie it just happens, it isn’t triggered by anything either it’s just always there. I lie to keep up with other lies and it’s getting exhausting trying to keep up with them all. I have no idea how to change, I don’t want to be like this but I convince myself I’m in too deep now and need to keep lies up. I can’t admit to being a liar the only thing I can do is stop which is harder than I thought. I have tried before in the past yet It never works. Like I said, I lie about everything even something as mundane as what I had for breakfast this morning. I feel like this is the only thing I’m not lying about which is painfully ironic.

I don’t want to be this way anymore, I feel like all of the people that like me only like a fake version of me. I don’t know how to stop or even reduce it.

I’m not sure if this is allowed or not but I’m trying to post on here to see if anyone else was/is like me and get advice on how to change for the better

Thank you
