Okay. Well I really hate lying, like I hate it. And I can't help it, but I lie to my family all the time, and I really don't want to. Like I don't set out to lie to them and to hurt them, it's just something I have to do. I lie to them about the things I eat, alll the time. Like they think I eat, when I don't and I hide my food and I just lie to them all the time, I don't know if they know I am lying, but it is really killing me inside. I wish I could stop lying but I can't. And like in the bible, it says to not lie and stuff, and I never used to, but I can't help it.
And now I can't stop thinking about lying, like it's in my mind all the time, and it's really confusing me, and making me freak out, when for the few minutes I am not thinking about food and being skinny I think about the terrible lies I have said.
What do I do?? I don't know how much more I can take, But I can't stop!! :(
Well what you did was lie about something and it lead to something bigger. The next thing you know everything that comes out of your mouth are lies. YOu can't help it because I know how it feels. What I did was slowly tell the truth. It doesn't have to be straight out the truth, but start little by little. It will slowly play out the way you want it. But you really need to find help, whether it is counseling or something. Get help, because your lies are hurting yourself. It is okay to lie a harmless lie, but when you lie to hurt someone or yourself, thats when you know you need help.
You have an eating disorder. The first thing you HAVE to do is tell your parents that you have an eating disorder, and you need counseling and medical help ASAP. Did you know that a Funadvice member recently died from her eating disorder? She wrote out a letter as her last words, and some of the things she said sounds like what you said, especially about the lying.
It is also a mental disorder, so sometimes you can't control what you are doing, even though you know what you are doing is wrong. Please, get help now as soon as possible.
I was diagnosed with anorexia a couple of days ago, my parents know. (I don't think I have one) but I am still lying, they are watching me feeding me, and I still continue to still lie. it's like I am not intentially lying to them, I am just doing what I do!! but it's killing me. espically because once they find out I have been lying, they will be so upset!!
BUT WHY CAN'T I STOP!! I just want to stop. it's really killing me! but I can't stop!! ohhh god!! I AM GOING TO HELL!!
You do have an eating disorder. It's time to be honest. I know that you have lied in your past, everyone has. Right now is not the time to lie. It is the time of truth. You need help. They will understand and will take you to the doctor. You HAVE to tell them now! I will PRAY for you. Also, you can PRAY! :)
Don't worry, no one's going to hell... If you want to help yourself, you need to get your parents to arrange a counselor or therapist to speak to about the lying. It's the only way..
You know right from wrong - come clean.
