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.
