You should probably tell someone. It may be helpful to go to someone who can really help.

Yes, when I was a teenager I used to lie about almost everything. I think it had something to do with me not liking who I was, but also something about protecting myself from people. I grew out of it to some degree, as I came to accept and like myself. I don’t lie any more. However, there are some things I just don’t tell anyone, which could be a form of dishonesty. I think a lot of the lies were about images I was trying to project to people. In this sense, most people you meet in the world are lying. People play roles, try to ’sell’ themselves as something they’d like to be. In fact, Modern Society makes it difficult not to do this, as being a real person, and a real person necesarily has faults, puts you at a disadvantage in most professional and social situations. However, as day by day I learn to be more ‘real’ I find two solid advantages. One, I’m more comfortable with myself. Two, I know who my real friends are.
