Lying why do we do it.

Hi

Lying why do we do it.

My fears were due to the unhealthy unhealed pains I experienced in my childhood.

As a child when ever I was asked to be honest I was punished for it.

So when asked to be honest I instantly reacted thinking honesty would be painful.

Lying indicated my fears and my pains that have not been healed or resolved.

By not healing my pains, by not facing and reducing my fears I am cheating my self from healthy emotional intimate relationships with myself and with other people.

Once we abstain from unhealthy habits and exchange those unhealthy habits in to healthy habits.

Then we are stop hurting our self.

It was not possible for me to heal my pains if I was still causing myself more pains by self abuse addictions.

Therapies help reduce our fears.

Therapies help us feel comfortable being open and honest.

Therapies help us increase our trusting.

Therapies help us open up to healthy intimacy with our self and then with others.

When I am able to respect my self I am able to respect others.

When I am able to love myself I am able to love others.  

Recovery is about a healthy healing process.

Recovery is about being the healthiest person I can be today.
