Regarding lying, I actually brought this up in my last therapy session because an SSRI gave me the opposite effect. Taking sertraline greatly reduced my ability (or rather, willingness) to lie. My psychiatrist attributed it to my improved self-confidence while on the drug. I'm not totally convinced. I do feel greater confidence indeed, but it seems like I'm less worried about what others think of me. It feels like there's not too much to gain from lying. I have taken other SSRIs before, but it is puzzling how each one has its own particular behavioral effects even though they all are increasing serotonin.
