...See more TL;DR anxious compulsive liar writes about how he slowly learned to understand himself while hiding in an attic for 8 months. Hello everyone, I’ve wanted to share my story with a broad audience for a very long time but never managed to do so. Recently I started writing down my thoughts, but it is slow going due to the anxiety and shame I feel about my past. Anyway, I realized that I wanted to share my writing and story even though it wasn’t finished, and I thought that the life story section would be a good place to do that. The writing centers on a long period of hiding in an attic plagued by anxiety. I’m doing my best to document my internal process accurately, so despite the darker ideas in the writing so far it’s a reflection of what I thought in the past, not necessarily what I’m going through now. I’m doing much better currently, shown by the fact that I can write to begin with. This will also be a long piece of writing, especially by the standard of forum posts. I hope you find it helpful, enjoyable, interesting, or otherwise worth the read. Please feel free to respond, I would love feedback.
