What do you call those who believes their own lies
02/14/19 at 10:53:29

The best answer on Quora

Living in denial! - this is what I'd say. But technically they are called pathalogical liars.

According to reference.com, Pathological liars all frequently lie without any reason for doing so. They do not look at lying as a way to obtain goals and external benefits in the way that most people do. Most people will lie in order to get something that they want without believing their own lies. Pathological liars will lie consistently and continually in large fantastical ways that can make it obvious to others that they are lying. Yet the pathological liar will believe his own lies and recreate his own reality.

Those suffering from narcissistic personality disorders and borderline personality disorders will also believe their own lies but on a more unconscious level. They do not want to be honest with themselves so they will change the way that they think to fit with their lies. Narcissists will often tell themselves and others that everyone loves them even though they do not. They want to believe it and so they say it. Borderline personality disorder sufferers find that their emotions are too intense to handle so they claim that their emotions are facts.

And there you have, honest....I ain't lying Grin

Have a GREAT day everyone

Oh I am sorry I confused you guy, not sure how that happened.

Gee, let me try it like this, you post your stuff TT, because you think it might help others, yes?

You believe in its "message", yes?

That is why I post the stuff I do too.......

I have found it helpful, useful, in my own life/understanding, sorta like the "tech" link Versy has on his post.

Hope that cleared it up for you guys

No, not really. I'm not really here to help anyone - that's what the Cafe and Rubber Side Down are for - IMHO. I come here to hold up a mirror to the unabashed hypocrisy of the conservative mind.

That is why I post the stuff I do too.......

To each their own. You do you.

Whether it helps someone or hinders them, that is irrelevant to the disinterested intent that TT said.
