my name is Claire I'm 29 and I'm a compulsive liar. I thought I was alone in this but I have already found strength in knowing other people out there suffer like I do.

My whole world fell apart this week when a bunch of my lies came out and I tried to lie my way out of it but I just couldn't. I've spent the last 4 days in bed sobbing and wanting to know what is wrong with me.

Hey Claire, first realize there is nothing wrong with you! Stop trying to present yourself as something else. We lie out of fear. Fear of judgement, rejection, abandonment, loss of control, need for being validated, .... Learn to embrace your imperfections. Stop behavior you do not want to admit to. Take it literally one day at a time. Breath. Remember you are a Devine being inside. Your life to this point has got you here for a reason. Your past does not define your future. So as of now stop the pity party. Admit that you are where you are due to choices you have made. But know you can create and manifest where you go from here. Start checking in daily with the daily check in and commit to making positive changes and choices go forward. Know the pain you feel today is letting you know you are alive. It's funny, people really will live the true authentic you more than the make believe and it frees up so much brain space not having to remember your lies!

Well said mikeyrg...

Claire, you have a lot of work ahead of you but life can be beautiful again. You need to figure out who Claire is and embrace the good and the imperfections. Some of the imperfections you can work on to become a better person. If you can't afford one on one therapy, I suggest that you look into EA (Emotions Anonymous). I just started and I think that it will really work for me. It is a 12 step support group (similar to AA). Everyone in their has their own imperfections and own stories to share. Great support with no judgements and no criticism. It is your life and your decisions. Very humbling. Good luck to you and like you said "One day at a time"
