I don't know what to do

Hey guys, I don't know what to do anymore.

I lie constantly about small things. Usually it is to my parents (have you vaccumed, have you read a book with your little brother, have you been to the shop) or sometimes to my teachers (I couldn't bring the essay because my printer broke, I sent the presentation via the email, there must have been some sort of error). I have done so for a few years now. It has become a sort of a habit for me. I don't lie constantly, sometimes I have the courage to say I haven't done something, but most of the time I just impulsevly lie and before I start thinking I am already too deep in my story to stop. I lie to avoid righteous consequences for me doing or not doing something, and most of the time I need to lie because I was too lazy to do it. Worst of all, most of the time lies don't work and I know that the person I am lying to will find it out and I'll face even worse consequences, but I just can't stop. Also, when I got away with a lie I feel good and that I have "won", but when I am confronted I feel teribble. My parents have completely lost their trust in me (I would do the same if I were them). I don't know what can I do to stop lying and to regain their trust. As I said, if I were to tell the truth, the consequences would be way smaller, and always when I am caught I think why haven't I told the truth.

We all need a jumping off point, a day where we can say "everything after today will be the truth so I won't have to worry about anything after this date. Only then can we start to clean up the messes we made before that day.
As you said, it always comes back, it's just a matter of time. Good Luck and keep us posted.
