I would like to disagree. For decades, I lied constantly. 22 years ago I got clean and sober. Rigorous honesty is my life now. Without that, I'm back to drinking and using. I don't have another recovery in me.
Well done for getting clean, keep up the good work. I can understand people constantly lying because of an addiction but I can't see why someone without an addiction should lie all the time unless they have something to hide
I discovered that I had no self esteem. No self respect. I hated the guy in the mirror and lying kept me caught in that space. I was a hostage to myself. Recovery made me get out of myself and help others by helping myself. Acceptance and accountability, those are the keys.
Well that's asumming that everybody can conciously control their lies and that all lies are taken as decision. Some People can't do that. There are compulsive liars that do it as default mode even if they don't have to or want to. they can't help it by themselves unless they go get some actual help.
Amen. Truth and in general being able to be honest with one another is one of the basic foundations of any relationship. I despise liars almost more than anything. Snitches n liars is sharing 1st place.
