Eli5: How do people become pathological liars?
In: Other
I can’t speak to the brain-chemical reasons why some do, but personally, I was close. I grew up with very emotionally crazy home, and lying about nearly everything was the most logical choice to create peace and safety at home. I perfected the ability after years of practice, so I could hardly tell the difference. It seemed more of a perspective than a lie.
It has taken lots of emotional counceling to undo that crazy.
