Me and my Compulsive Lying Disorder

Postby kellmabel » Wed Apr 12, 2006 9:23 pm

I am a 16 year old girl, and for as long as I can remember I have lied. Not for any reason in particular, just lied. It was only this year that my psychiatrist and I began talking about it, and classifying it as another disorder I have. But when she told me the reasons people have this disorder, I couldn't help but think that she is compleately bogus. I don't lie to get profit or pleasure... I don't even like when I lie. I become guilty easily, and absolutely hate it when I lie to someone, about even the most minute thing, and then the guilt comes after it. Even if someone doesn't catch me in my lie, I feel just so guilty. Is there any way to get rid of this disorder? Or to at least not lie so much?

I used to lie.My whole youth I lied-and then some day as if struck by lightening I stopped for good.
I don't know what happened,but I do know that if it is an illness 99.5% of humanity has it.
I believe it is the HUMAN THING TO DO,that is where lies the problem-THE "Y O U " which you think you are is NOT HUMAN-"YOU ARE SOUL"
-------
You can live within the consciousness(attention) of being HUMAN or of being A SOUL.It is your choice.You fool no one here when you lie-it all will eventually turn itself back unto you whether you lie or tell the truth-but either way you will probably have 2 different results.

If you use your mind with psychological conditions ,then you are not using SOUL which you are -- here it is explained:
link #1

....... of letting the conditions of the mind cease without suppressing them with another condition. Otherwise you just end up putting one condition over another.
------------------
link #2
http://www.thebuddhadharma.com/issues/2 ... medho.html
......Your conditioned mind thinks, & Awareness is nothing; it doesn't amount to anything. It's not worth anything. You couldn't sell it! ; This is the point at which we learn to trust in the ability to awaken.

And I would say
realize the values of humanity for what they are.
realize the values of Soul which are not in the tarnished ways of society.
the mind is the instrument of human FRAILTIES (look up this word)
the heart (its silence-not emotional sentimentality) is the instrument of Soul STRENGTH
__________
as I said in my first post:
You can live within the consciousness(attention) of being HUMAN or of being A SOUL.It is your choice.You fool no one here when you lie-it all will eventually turn itself back unto you whether you lie or tell the truth-but either way you will probably have 2 different results.
