Though Chapter 1 may have left you feeling like a liar that wasn't the point. Remember I told you the first step was to realize you were lying? Well, you have improved a lot by just reading a small chapter! Now you have recognized your mistakes. Once you know them don't stress about them. I'm not asking you to now be the most truthful person! I'm asking you to super slowly a lie at a time cut them out of your life. Remember many people just like you read this story as well! Most of you have fallen into the same trap of lying. I'm here to help you get out of it. Or at least work your way out of it :) I would feel MUCH better knowing this all helped someone so let me know if it made even the smallest of differences in your life. WARNING!!! Some lies can be dangerous and create stress in your life. They may be doing you or others plenty of harm. Here are my top 3 and why they are dangerous:
I am fine- This is SUPER common and prevents others from helping you. You need to talk to someone if you don't actually feel fine. Try to correct this one with "I am good" or "Ok". Keep in mind that the word fine means you are insecure and satisfactorily ok and people say it to avoid more conversation/worry about them/attention/therapist.
I hate myself-Commonly said in our heads, safely tucked away from everyone else this lie is SUPER destructive to your life and can very well end it. Repeating this every day to yourself creates a bad routine. No one will know about it or help you out since they don't hear you saying it most times. BE CAREFUL! At some point, you begin to believe it and damage yourself with this thought. Try to change it to something positive like "there are good things about me" or "People love me and I should as well".

I hate you- Works the same way and instead of damaging your life if heard enough times by another can hurt there's! Be careful what you say out loud!!
