I cannot stop lying...

I am very sorry but i do not know where to post this in this forum and i really wanted someone to read my story or even to talk with me about this...

I am a male 23 years old...I have lied to people everyone in my life ALL OF MY LIFE since i can talk...Of course i have spoken the truth sometimes but most of what i say is a lie....I lie to my best friend i lie to the once i loved or even my Mother....I feel so good when someone believes my lies and feel very powerfull and kind of evil...But i like feeling evil that way...I like to controle people in a certain way so everything goes according to my plan and everyone dances in the palm of my hands...Now since today i am starting to feel kind of guilty about it but i still laugh at it also....I need to stop this...I want to stop it and leave everyone i have ever known behind...I also have a heavy iritating compulsive disorder and a addiction to alcohol since i was 13...I get addicted to substances very easily....

Thanks in advance for reading my story =)

it sounds like you are unhappy with the choices you are making and want to change. look for a therapist that specializes in compulsions and addictions to help you out. welcome to psych central. you will find we have several forums where you can post about your concerns and receive feedback from other members. you will get a lot of support here. again, welcome

I am 31 and have had the exact same problem my entire life. Lying. You're not alone. Not at all.

Well this was an interesting post to read. Thinking of being a politician are you? No remorse eh? Well I would attend to the substance abuse ASAP....
Power eh? I wonder have you seen a therapist yet? You need to stop? Well you need to have a true desire to stop IMO. What we create in our mind we can destroy as well.

Good luck to you on your sojourn.

Good luck.. in all honesty the gig, I'm sure is up... you may not realize but I'm willing to bet 3/4 of the people around you know you are a compulsive liar.... that may be hard to buy for you... but I'm just being honest... I've known some seriously bad compulsive liars in my te and in all honesty they weren't fooling anyone really. . Just no one called them out. If you sincerely looking for help you might ask your primary physician for a good therapist or look for yourself.

My lying began at an early age when I gradually realized that my tendency to be extremely honest was often met by severe abuse and retaliation from my parents while the kids who consistently LIED got off or even REWARDED for their lies. It finally hit me that my parents, the inspiration for my lying, were much happier and less punitive if I just told bald face lies like all the other kids so I gradually got into BIG TIME lying and everything was A-OK after that! Now I realize that my own parents unintentionally started my lying habit by punishing me when I was hones and letting me off when I LIED! This subtly led to other, more sinister activities as I gradually went further down hill and deeper into rotten behavior behind their ignorant backs. They, not I, set up all the conditions for me to become a very bad and corrupt child while all the time stupidly believing that their boys were "model" children! What hopeless idiots they both were! My brother's parental corruption eventually landed him in State Prison for armed robbery.
In my case, therapy and 12 step groups helped me return to truth telling & break my parental programing to become corrupt and I continue to work on it every day.
good luck,
jim
