The Psychology of the Pathological Liar

Pathological liars don’t just lie to others; they lie to protect a carefully constructed version of themselves. In this video, we explore the psychology of the pathological liar: the hidden motives, emotional wounds, and patterns of manipulation that drive chronic deceit.

Pathological lying often begins as a coping mechanism, a way to avoid shame, rejection, or accountability. Over time, it becomes habitual. These lies can appear meaningless, but each one serves a purpose: to maintain the illusion.

Through this lens, we’ll look at how pathological liars distort reality, how they gaslight and manipulate, and how their behaviour affects those around them. You’ll learn how to recognise the warning signs, protect your boundaries, and understand the deeper psychology behind this destructive behaviour.

If you’ve ever been caught in a web of lies, or questioned your own reality around someone who constantly twists the truth, this video will help you make sense of what’s really going on.

If you relate to this video, I’d love to hear your story in the comments. Sharing experiences helps others know they’re not alone.
