IS THERE HOPE FOR ME, A COMPULSIVE LIAR? Ask The Doctor Dr. Leland Heller Biological Unhappiness IS THERE HOPE FOR ME, A COMPULSIVE LIAR? Question: Dear Dr. Heller, My name is Tom, I have recently come to a point of reviewing myself. I realize I may be a compulsive liar. I tend to tell a situation that really happened to me but I pretty much push all my faults & responsibility on to others. By doing this I begin to lie about things, things like I’m always right I did this and that where I did everything opposite. For example, Just recently I got fired from my job & I guess it was due to my loss of control over my temper. So in my termination letter, said I was terminated due to failure to meet requirements and failure to improve my performance. But when my family & friends ask me, I go on telling them I was fired because of my work ethics, I went on & said I was being too nice of a guy & my place didn’t like that but the truth is I’m just a total Jerk to my patients. Honestly, I never liked working at the place I was at. I had so much stress & that built up to anger & hate towards my job. Well how can I stop this compulsive lying disorder? I’m so need in help. please help.. Hopeless Tom Dr. Heller’s Answer: Sometimes anxiety disorders, particularly with ADHD, can cause lying. Compulsive lying may be a sign of OCD. I’d recommend going over the screening test at http://pks.947.myftpupload.com/screen.htm and get any diagnoses treated. Its obvious your self esteem is in bad shape, and needs help. Counseling is a good idea. I’d also highly recommend listening to Zig Ziglar’s “How to Stay Motivated” tape series. 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 Ask the Doctor Home MENU: Screening Test “Ask the Doctor” (BPD)Borderline Personality Disorder Annual Updates Biological Unhappiness Disorders & Official Criteria Dr. Heller’s C.V. & Picture How Dr. Heller Got Involved If You Want to See Dr. Heller as a Patient Testimonials Table of Contents for the Book ‘Biological Unhappiness’ How to Order “Life at the Border” Why Read ‘Biological Unhappiness’?
