How can I stop being a compulsive liar?

By understanding WHY you lie. Conscious realization of what your true emotions are is the key to almost everything in life. Don't be afraid to express what lies within.

You can start by knowing why you lie, is there any sort of reason? Then when you feel you need to lie just tell yourself it's for the best and tell the truth. If a lie does slip out make sure to apologize as soon as possible and tell them the truth. Hope this helps :)

You have to find the reason behind all of that lying,Then you can start to change whats botheringyou

Before you tell a lie, think about the reason you want to tell it. Is it to make yourself sound more interesting? To avoid conflict or getting into trouble? Telling a white lie to avoid hurting someone's feelings is appropriate but you should think about when this is helping and when lying starts to hurt. Try thinking about the reasons you feel the need to tell a lie. You should come clean about lies and tell the truth before they begin to eat away at you or you feel you need to tell more lies to cover the first one.

You can start by telling the truth. The easiest way of telling the truth is by reading facts and strictly speaking facts.

Lying is a bad habit just like any other bad habits that people have. You have to teach yourself that it is a bad habit and it will lead to bad things in the future.

I say, put yourself in someone else's shoes (the person you're lying to) how would you feel if you were lied to? Not great I'm sure. Being honest and genuine will get you further with people than lying ever will. Also, lies have a way with catching up to you. Better to be pure and lie free then to drown in a web of lies.

Try to understand what makes you be a compulsive liar deep inside yourself. It's a difficult task, so be patient.

Perhaps try an accountability journal? Write down every time you tell a lie or even put a checkmark on the date, that way you can see how often you are doing this and maybe it will curtail the behavior.

Maybe you could ask yourself why do you act that way in the first place? And then from there, you could start working on the source of this problem. A therapist could assist you in both point!
