Q: Mr. Norris, I've been
stuffing the truth about some-
thing for a long time -- so
much so that I believe living a
lie is negatively affecting my
health. Any basis for that?
--"Done With Deceit"
Des Moines, Iowa
A: Is anyone shocked any-
more to discover that someone
is concealing the truth? It has
become a normal way of life.
Lying has become such an
integral, part of our culture
that one can enroll in a class
on deception at many of Amer.
ica's academic institutions.
"Lying has been described as
one of the most fundamental
human activities," described
one class syllabus.
There is actually a science of
lying, something used in help-
ing people become lie detec-
tors. One can find articles on
the science in an array of peri-
odicals, such as Forbes maga-
zine, which recently featured
an article titled "Ten Ways To
Tell If Someone Is Lying To
You." One also can purchase
online a host of how-to books
on lying, such as one titled.
"How To Lie With Statistics."
Lying has become so perva-
sive that it has become a clini-
cal and compulsive illness that
is, in some cases, even covered
by medical insurance. (The
American Academy of Child &
Adolescent Psychiatry will
help parents and guardians de-
tect whether their children fall
into this category.)
The ubiquitous nat_ure of
lying makes me think of a
line by Fletcher Reede, Jim
Carrey's lawyer character in
the movie "Liar Liar." When
cornered by his young son
about his rampant and out-of-
control fibbing, Fletcher re-
torted, "It's not wrong to lie.
Everyone lies!" (The movie
made comedy of the truth that
people no longer even worry
about the risks of perjury in
our courts of law.)
Most say, "There's no trou-
ble with a little white lie,
right?" Some say, "Lying isn't
the problem; getting caught is."
Truth be told, however, ly-
ing can be detrimental to you
in a variety of ways.
First, hasn't everyone's ex-
perience proved that one way
or another, what's covered up
is eventually revealed? It's
proved out almost every day
in most households, schools
and workplaces.
Second, recent studies have
further supported that lying
is actually bad for your

health. Yahoo's Shine report-
ed that it all begins with the
release of the same negative
stress hormone that causes
"fight or flight response."
According to Saundra Dal-
ton-Smith, M.D., author of"Set
Free to Live Free: Breaking
Through the 7 Lies Women Tell
Themselves," "this increase in
stress hormones causes your
heart rate and breathing to in-
crease, digestion to slow down,
and hypersensitivity of muscle
and nerve fibers." Chronic ly-
ing can actually lead to the
same illnesses and diseases as-
sociated with chronic stress,
such as diabetes, heart disease
and cancer.
Third, perpetual liars cre-
ate more perpetual lies, not
only in familial settings but
also as personal patterns in
one's life. As is the case with
Lay's potato chips, one lie is
never enough!
In November, a study pub-
lished in Consciousness and
Cognition by Ghent Universi-
ty's department of psychology
in Belgium concluded, "Fre-
quent truth telling made lying
more difficult, and frequent
lying made lying easier."
Dalton-Smith summarized
the study and the choices we
have: "You reap what you
sow. The more you lie the eas-
ier it becomes, and similarly
the more honest you are the
easier it is to be honest."
In short, honesty is the best
policy on many levels, includ-
ing with our health. Even in
organizations, truth-telling
policies can yield great bene-
fits, from leadership synergy
to financial savings. For exam-
ple, in 2002, the University of
Michigan Health System de-
cided to practice an honesty
and apology policy in all of its
health care dealings. As a re-
sult, CBS reported, "claims
against the system.., dropped
from 262 in 2001 to 83 in 2007.
Fewer claims have aUowed the
system to drop its malpractice
insurance cash reserves from
73 million to 13 million."
Whether as organizations
or citizens -- but especially as
models for our children and
grandchildren -- we must
return to a time when telling
the truth was admired and
commended. As America's
first president, George Wash.
ington, once said, so we all
should say: "I hope I shall pos-
sess firmness and virtue
enough to maintain what I
consider the most enviable of
all titles, the character of an
honest man."
We all know it's sometimes
diffzcult to tell the truth, espe-
cially if there are consequences
for doing so. But the truth is
that the best and healthiest
way forward is to overcome
personal and relational hur-
dles by facing our fears with
the truth and building a bridge
to a better tomorrow.
And there's one more bene-
fit of truthfulness. As Mark
Twain put it, "Always tell the
truth. That way, you don't
have to remember what you
said."
