All the while I didn’t know she was lying straight to my face. What honestly gives me chills is how believable she was and how “honest” she sounded all those years. When you think something is a certain way for years only to find out it wasn’t real it kind of messes with you. To be honest this all has contributed to my trust issues and it’s made me question my own reality. I feel like our whole relationship was one big a lie and I don’t actually “know” who she is. I feel in shock because I don’t know even know for sure what was true and what wasn’t while I was growing up. She also lied about other things, mainly her substance abuse issues… lies about my brother… her money situation… literally everything.

My mom and I had a rocky relationship up until 2 years ago when it became so severely toxic that I chose to not have her in my life anymore and we haven’t talked since. He got custody of me when I was very young due to my mom’s drug use. It’s important to set boundaries with compulsive liars to protect yourself.Just a little background: I’m a 29-year-old female and I grew-up living with my dad.
