do you think it is normal to have a hard trusting people in general as an adult?

Yes. Humans primary learn though mimicy and some biological hardwiring.

If someone who is core to your pyschology development lies to you a lot, it will leave a impression on your pyche. Anything and everything does really that causes emotional effect on people. Positive or negative.

Hope is not lost nor are you damaged. Please don't fall into that mental out trap. Getting closer on this will help. Looking up why people lie and the ways they do it, will help you understand, if closer isn't possible though normal means. Just don't forget, them lieing is a reflection of themselves not the rest of the world or you.

Not really. Kids are still their own person.

I'm basically asking if you think that the theory held in modern psychology that interactions with our primary caregivers inform the way we view the world and attachments to people is true?



not that since your parents are liars you will be a liar as well

just that you may most people lie

or that lying is a form of love and or normal/not a big deal..even when it harms you

or simply attract people who perpetually lie

I have no clue...she lies about a lot of things

big things ...small things....it doesn't matter

it's just how she relates to people

i used to blame her gemini moon

but in reality, maybe it's a symptom of mental illness

i know for a fact that my mother suffers from some disorder...as she is really unstable

i just can't tell what

How could you not think that, when Santa Clause is the biggest lie they tell kids and then crush their little spirits in their childhood when they find out he was never alive putting presents under their childhood home tree.

Teaching on generation after another that it is in fact, ok to lie.


lol that was the one thing my parents never lied to me about

The thing about people with mental illness is that they believe thier own lies. They gaslight themselves as a form of self protection of the ego. It just snowballs over time. When they get older they might have moments of clarity and break down and thier illusions shatter. Even will even apologize to you and everyone. They can't handle the pain and the truth for long so they snap back eventually.

That is all beside the point. Why are asking?

you mean snap back and start lying again/being in denial about it?

Yes. Seen this first hand a few times and I'm not the only one who has had this experience with a relative.

There is this movie momento. You should watch it.

The guy can't make long term memories, because of a injury and forgets everything when he sleeps. He is looking for his wife's killer which the police think he is the culprit. He uses notes to himself to keep track of what he has learned previously.It is also the same day he had the head injury. He remembers nothing about that day and can't hold memories after the fact.



"Spoiler alert."

At one point he finds out the truth and doesn't like what he hears. It's too painful. He did it. So he destroys the clues leading him to the truth and writes new ones.

i feel like people with strong Gemini placements do this and or again as already established people with mental illness
