It is amazing to see how much my mother lies. Not only to other people but to herself too. for an example


She decided to quit smoking about a month and a half ago. We were all very happy about it (seeing as she had been smoking for 30+ years). So about two weeks ago she picked back up. Instead of admitting she started back again she says "i still quit i just have one or two now and then". However, she is smoking at least a pack a week and gets angry if you imply that she hasnt quit.

She is also spreading horrible lies about her ex husband. Things that are so wrong and false its ridiculous. There is no way that crap can be true. And if it is why tell anyone? Why stoop to that level?


Im so sick of all the bull$hit that comes out of her mouth.

My mom is that way, too. Having a parent with an addiction is bad enough in the first place, right? But then, to add to it, they can't get out of that cycle of quitting then picking it back up. Psychology tests show that addicts quit more permanently if they accept the fact that they will slip several times before it sticks.

Sucks.

I smoke too. I keep telling myself "This will be my last pack." But I always buy another one. A pack can last me about 5-7 days. But, I know when I'm with my husband (Who smokes) I will be smoking a lot more. >.< I want to quit, but I enjoy it too much.

I'm sorry to hear that about your mother :(

My mum's in denial most of the time.. so I guess I see where my ability to lie comes from.. sorta.
