Today is the end of day 4 for me. No temptations today, but tomorrow is another day.

Stay strong everyone

I'm Cara and I'm a compulsive liar. Physically I feel kind of lazy. Not quite tired, not quite perky. Mentally I'm focused. Emotionally I feel numb, empty; these are unusual feelings for me until lately. Spiritually I feel quasi-connected. I have no cravings, for shopping, alcohol, or to exaggerate or lie. I have no obsessive thoughts. My stressors are money, childcare for work if I get called in this week. Don't have a sponsor; have read no recovery literature today. Have not been to a meeting (facilitating one at work really doesn't count!). I have not spoken to another person in recovery (work doesn't count; I can't disclose to my clients/patients). My healthy coping skills are journaling and... being here. Days clean and sober-- about 5 hours. :(

Trying not to feel like a failure. Need to meditate tomorrow and focus on being mindful and watching what escapes from my lips. Still feel disconnected from my boyfriend. Feeling more so everyday. :( Planning on a short, stay-cation with just me and my three kids. No boyfriend. No boyfriend's son. I get paid Friday and may just take my 3 bowling and to the bookstore. Just us. No pressure. Just the family.

I had an epiphany this weekend that in my recovery I am putting pressure on myself to be "a good little girl." It's that all-or-nothing thinking. Perfectionism. I am putting so much pressure on myself I'm cracking. I almost wished I did not live with my boyfriend. I want to be alone to lick my wounds. He talks about his dislike of feeling left out. Funny, when I need him, he seems surly. When I want to be alone, he takes it personally. I need some space. I need "me time." I hope he'll understand when I go and soak in the tub rather than do fireworks with him. He thought nothing of making us late to my friends' home yesterday. He inconvenienced them and it aggravated them.

Whew!!! Hope everyone has a great rest of the day.

Day 9 now and going ok so far. Trying to keep focused in he heat and crankiness. Hopefully I will break my own record of staying truthfull.

Stay strong everyone...

I'm Cara and I'm a liar. I lied A LOT today. Especially at work. I feel like pretty bad about it. Then I lied to cover my lies. I'm pretty fed up with work and felt like I needed to fib and exaggerate to justify it. What the hell is wrong with me? Everyday I tell myself, "Today is going to be different." And, it never is. I really do feel like this thing is bigger than I. Not as a cop-out, it just really feels that way. It's such an ingrained habit it's beyond something I seem to have control over. :(

Hello. my name is Amy

I haven't lied for a few hours. Bad lies. bad bad ones. But Im gonna try this. Im gonna try to rock the sure shot and just be truthful. For once.

hi my name is amanda. i lie to my husband and i am losing him. this is day 1.

I'm Mitzi and I'm a Liar - Yesterday I blew it so I am back to square one - I was dancing when I should have been forthright and honest - dancing is the same as deceit - I just need to learn that it is better to be upfront and honest than try to shovel the "BS" and confuse the issue.

So today is day 1 - again....

My name is ben and I'm a compulsive liar. I was honest all day yesterday and it felt great.

Stay strong everyone

Hi, my name is Troy, and I am a liar. This is my first day and it has not been good. I have admitted it to myself, and now to others as well. My husband no longer trusts me or what I say, and I cannot say I blame him for that.

I'm Cara and I'm a liar. I feel pretty good. Have to go to work today; hope it goes well.

Everyone take care.
