lying is a sure form of insecurity, you can't tell people the truth because you're insecure that they might not be interested in you or like you. Like many people say in this sub you need to work on your inner self. Reflect why you do this, and work on respecting yourself for who you are

Be honest with yourself. Acknowledge all the shit that's in your head. Your insecurities, your worries, your doubts, and your fears. Accept them as problems that needs to be solved, rather than letting them define who you are. Own up to them fully. How can you be honest to others if you're not honest to yourself?

If you're not feeling okay, then say you're not okay. If you didn't do something that you were supposed to, don't give bullshit excuses. A simple "I didnt want to" to just a "no, I didn't" will suffice, but actually finish your tasks. People will appreciate your honesty and it will help you out more than you think. Honesty is the best policy.

This might be approval-seeking behavior, combined with some feelings that you aren't good enough to get approval without exaggerating and puffing yourself up. This is sort of an ego problem, you have feelings of inferiority so you get an artificially inflated ego as a defense mechanism. Try to let go of your ego. That's hard.

Get the audio book 6 pillars of self esteem it's 3 hours long, take notes, and it will teach you how to have integrity, and assertiveness. Lack of those two will lead you to lie, because you believe the image they have in theit head is more important than the truth you have in yours. Authentic, or unauthentic, real, or unreal, congruent, or encongruent. Fake or genuine, trustworthy, or untrustworthy
