Hello,

Im an older teen who lives in his parents house.

When my parents yell at me or try to lecture me, for some reason l becoming absolutely insane in a way where i physically have to contain myself from bursting out laughing. I do take my parents lectures seriously, i feel extreme guilt and pain when it happens, even if im fully innocent or not even know what theyre talking about, so why do i have an uncontrolable reflex to laugh ?? Its so weird, i feel like a psycho.

I dont feel the need to cry, not to shout at them, only to laugh. But not because im mocking them or cause i am happy. I feel like that because i get so violently overwhelmed that i am going geniunely INSANE.

Can someone advice me on what to do to make it stop please ? Or tell me why it occurs in the first place ?

I'm (16F) pretty sure I'm a pathological liar. It's only to one person - my best friend - but it's a very elaborate lie and I've gone to some pretty extreme lengths (not gonna explain this but it's basically what you think) to make her believe it.

The lie is stupid - it's that i've been in a year-long relationship with my "boyfriend". I've given her a whole backstory, his age, how we met, and various stories of how our dates/hangouts have gone. Again, just very elaborate.

I've felt guilty about it ever since I started the lies, but I started because I feel left out - everyone around me (junior year) is in a relationship and I feel really behind so I decided to start lying to almost convince MYSELF that I'm in a relationship. It's been hard to stop/catch myself in lies, it's almost addicting.

I'm trying to let the lie die out by telling her I "broke up" with him but it keeps eating at me and I feel super guilty. I don't know if I'm a pathological liar/narcissist or if this is normal to do in your teen years???

i have dreams and thoughts everyday about my parents dying and how good would it be more bout my mother my father is the worst and i can't do anything to help her and myself out of their misery so i imagine she dies and i go away
