I May Have a Problem with Lying

Whether it's to someone else or myself, I am coming to terms with the fact that I lie a lot to escape telling the truth about my family situation, responsibility for my actions, and to give others a false impression of who I am to hide what I am ashamed of about myself or see as a shortcoming. How do I learn to own up to my shit and change for the better?

You need to figure out that you are a pretty good person and, sure, you've made mistakes. Thats part of growing into the person you want to be. It's ok to be you. I know there is more to this than just hat, but it's somewhere to start. maybe, if at all possible, see about seeing someone to talk some of this stuff through. Our own cruelties to ourselves serve no good purpose. Be nice to you.
