Dealing with a compulsive liar? ...well now you are dealing with the reality of HELL

You know we all have one in our lives... the liar. Not just someone who is a occasional liar, no-I'm talking liar who takes it to a compulsive degree. There is a point where you see yourself constantly backtracking to only find yourself spun into a web and unable to find your way out. No it's not your own web of lies... but somehow you got intertwined in the other persons lies. Some have you so twisted in the lies that you don't even realize it! 


Phew that's was exhausting!




It doesn't matter if it's a ex, spouse, family member, or friend we all have found ourselves in this situation. Or maybe just maybe unbeknownst to you your own web entrapped someone in your web of lies. 


But then there are the Pathological Liars... ah yes the ones who just can't stop. They actually know they are liars but they can't stop... or worse they don't want to stop! Personally I think that they know they are telling lies but they have themselves so convince of it that they actually believe their lie to be truth. Frankly that part scares me.


Pseudologia Fantastica aka Pathological Liar aka Mythomania


A psychological condition, otherwise known as pathological or compulsive lying, in which the sufferer habitually lies. The lies are caused by an internal need to lie, not environmental or social factors. Unlike in psychotic or delusional disorders, people with this condition can recognize they are lying, though they may be unwilling to do it, leading to anger, confusion, and (in some cases) violence following confrontation.
