The Truth About Lying (Toxic Truths)

The Truth About Lying (Toxic Truths)

We’re telling the truth about lying in today’s episode. It's an oxymoron, isn’t it? For most people, lying is a behavior learned in childhood and, unfortunately, carries into adulthood. From telling white lies to avoid minor inconveniences to engaging in more elaborate fabrications to protect ourselves, lying has become an almost reflexive coping mechanism. But make no mistake; lying is a form of betrayal that sows distrust, instability, and insecurity in any relationship.

But why do we lie? When we were children, lying often served as a tool to evade punishment or avoid disappointing our parents. This behavior stems from an inherent fear of repercussions and an unrefined sense of protecting ourselves. Interestingly, lying doesn’t stop there. We carry this survival tactic into adulthood, whether to protect ourselves or someone we love or to avoid conflict.

We also discuss how lying destroys relationships and tips on rebuilding trust after lying.
