Pathological lying is a chronic behavior in which a person habitually or compulsively lies. It is different from other types of lying because pathological liars live in a false sense of self. They lie to create a positive view of themselves or present themselves in a way that makes them look appealing to others. Signs of a pathological liar include telling small lies, changing stories, seeking attention, and lacking empathy. Pathological liars may have a personality disorder, addiction, or have experienced childhood trauma.
