Un mentiroso compulsivo (tambi\u00e9n conocido como mentiroso patol\u00f3gico) es una persona que recurre a la mentira habitual, es decir, que miente compulsivamente a sus seres queridos, compa\u00f1eros de trabajo o familiares.<\/p>\n

Algunos creen que la mentira patol\u00f3gica (tambi\u00e9n conocida como pseudolog\u00eda fant\u00e1stica o mitoman\u00eda) tiene su origen en una enfermedad mental (trastorno antisocial de la personalidad, a veces denominado sociopat\u00eda). <\/strong><\/p>\n

Aunque tambi\u00e9n hay casos NO respaldados por la investigaci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Aunque la mentira compulsiva es un tema ampliamente debatido desde hace casi un siglo, todav\u00eda no existe una definici\u00f3n universalmente aceptada. de<\/strong> esta afecci\u00f3n que a veces se asemeja a una trastorno l\u00edmite de la personalidad<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A diferencia de las peque\u00f1as mentiras blancas, los mentirosos compulsivos dicen mentiras patol\u00f3gicas todo el tiempo, y sin motivo aparente. Las mentiras piadosas pueden ser beneficiosas, mientras que los motivos de las mentiras compulsivas suelen ser tortuosos y autocomplacientes.<\/p>\n

La gente miente debido a la baja autoestima<\/a> y para escapar de situaciones sociales desagradables. Pero a mayor escala, tambi\u00e9n puede ser signo de un trastorno mental profundamente arraigado.<\/p>\n

In this article, I\u2019ll offer a detailed guide on how to uncover a pathological liar, as well as recognize and cope with one.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00bfC\u00f3mo se define a un mentiroso compulsivo?<\/h2>\n

\"joven<\/p>\n

Seg\u00fan los profesionales de la salud mental, \u00e9sta es la definici\u00f3n de mentiroso compulsivo: Una persona que miente regularmente sin sentirse culpable y que casi no controla sus propias mentiras.<\/p>\n

It is believed that their motives aren’t for beneficial purposes, but rather just part of who they innately are.<\/p>\n

Sus h\u00e1bitos mentirosos hacen cada vez m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil forjar relaciones interpersonales s\u00f3lidas y significativas, ya que vivir con (o trabajar\/socializarse con) un mentiroso patol\u00f3gico<\/a> es casi imposible.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Compulsive lying (pseudologia phantastica) can also suggest that there’s a deeper disorder or a condition in play, like bipolar disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, histrionic personality disorder, or borderline personality disorder.<\/p>\n

Si un profesional m\u00e9dico tiene motivos para creer que la mentira patol\u00f3gica forma parte de alguno de los trastornos de la personalidad mencionados anteriormente, es probable que sugiera la psicoterapia como siguiente mejor paso.<\/p>\n

If you’ve noticed any abnormalities in your loved one’s<\/a> comportamiento, incluyendo decir mentiras compulsiva y continuamente, considere buscar ayuda profesional.<\/p>\n

Puede que les ocurra algo en el sistema nervioso central que les haga mentir.<\/p>\n

Nadie quiere acabar en la psiquiatr\u00eda, pero a veces es el \u00faltimo recurso para un problema cada vez m\u00e1s preocupante, como la mentira compulsiva, y nunca debe tomarse a la ligera.<\/p>\n

\u00bfQu\u00e9 lleva a la gente a mentir compulsivamente?<\/h2>\n

While there isn’t one particular cause that makes pathological liars resort to their deceiving ways, there are a few disorders I’ll discuss that might be the underlying reasons.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Factitious disorder<\/h3>\n

\"mujer<\/p>\n

Factitious disorder, which is also known as Munchausen’s syndrome, is a condition that makes people behave mentally or physically incapacitated, when in fact, they’re not.<\/p>\n

When a person has Munchausen’s syndrome, it means that they’re telling lies about themselves or another person being ill.<\/p>\n

Esta afecci\u00f3n concreta se da con mayor frecuencia en madres, que inventan una enfermedad en sus hijos y se la comunican al m\u00e9dico (lo que se conoce como s\u00edndrome de Munchausen por poderes).<\/p>\n

A\u00fan no se sabe con exactitud cu\u00e1l es la causa de este trastorno, pero existen teor\u00edas al respecto, algunas de las cuales son:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 a serious case of substance abuse<\/p>\n

\u2022 causes of genetic or biological origin<\/p>\n

\u2022 struggles with depression<\/p>\n

\u2022 an uncovered personality disorder<\/p>\n

\u2022 severe lack of self-confidence<\/p>\n

\u2022 childhood neglect (or in worse cases, abusive behavior)<\/p>\n

\u2022 Personality disorder<\/h3>\n

\"hombre<\/p>\n

Tres trastornos de la personalidad podr\u00edan ser la causa de la mentira patol\u00f3gica. Son los siguientes BPD<\/strong> (trastorno l\u00edmite de la personalidad), NPD<\/strong> (trastorno narcisista de la personalidad), y APD<\/strong> (trastorno antisocial de la personalidad).<\/p>\n

Cuando una persona padece BDP, le resulta dif\u00edcil controlar sus emociones y sentimientos.<\/p>\n

Tambi\u00e9n tienen cambios de humor incontrolables, sufren una inseguridad devastadora y su sentido del yo est\u00e1 gravemente distorsionado.<\/p>\n

When it comes to NPD, we’re talking about self-indulgent fantasies of a higher sense of self and a constant need to be admired and treated as superior.<\/p>\n

Hay razones para creer que los mentirosos patol\u00f3gicos pueden padecer TPA, ya que quienes lo sufren recurren a decir mentiras con el \u00fanico fin de autocomplacerse.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Las personas que padecen TLP o NPD pueden mentir para distorsionar su realidad y hacerla m\u00e1s acorde con sus emociones actuales, no<\/em> hechos.<\/p>\n

Estos trastornos de la personalidad pueden dificultar la creaci\u00f3n de v\u00ednculos significativos con otras personas.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Frontotemporal dementia<\/h3>\n

\"mujer<\/p>\n

I’ve heard of a case where one person (that will remain nameless for the sake of their privacy) was struggling with compulsive lying, and their behavior was eerily akin to those suffering from frontotemporal dementia.<\/p>\n

We’re talking about a type of dementia in the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain that creates serious changes in a person’s overall behavior and how they speak.<\/p>\n

Estos cambios pueden ser los siguientes:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 sudden changes in eating habits<\/p>\n

\u2022 zero signs of empathy and consideration<\/p>\n

\u2022 almost no awareness of other people’s feelings<\/p>\n

\u2022 unbecoming social behavior (that they\u2019ve never exhibited before)<\/p>\n

\u2022 pathological behavior patterns<\/p>\n

\u2022 they get bored and agitated easily<\/p>\n

5 rasgos fascinantes de un mentiroso compulsivo<\/h2>\n

Their lies don’t seem to have a clear motive<\/h2>\n

\"triste<\/p>\n

Normally, people lie for a variety of reasons. As I’ve mentioned above, it can be to avoid an uncomfortable social situation, save themselves from embarrassment, and similar.<\/p>\n

Pero un mentiroso compulsivo escupir\u00e1 falsedades sin ganar nada con ello.<\/p>\n

Esto puede resultar especialmente confuso para sus seres queridos (familia, mejores amigos<\/a>compa\u00f1eros de trabajo) que intentan llegar al fondo de su comportamiento, siempre con las manos vac\u00edas.<\/p>\n

Perhaps all we need to understand is that compulsive liars mean no harm. They genuinely don’t know any other way to be.<\/p>\n

Sus historias est\u00e1n llenas de adornos, detalles y dramatismo.<\/h2>\n

\"dos<\/p>\n

Este es el rasgo distintivo de un mentiroso patol\u00f3gico. Esta persona es un narrador excepcional, capaz de crear escenarios fascinantes que suenan extremadamente convincentes.<\/p>\n

Eso es quiz\u00e1 lo m\u00e1s intrigante de ellos. Normalmente, cuando la gente entra en grandes detalles al tratar de defenderse, suena TAN falso.<\/p>\n

But they manage to convince you that what they’re saying is true, regardless of the insane embellishments and details.<\/p>\n

This goes to show how committed they are to their lies and how far they’re willing to go to make it sound realistic.<\/p>\n

Parecen creer firmemente sus propias mentiras<\/h2>\n

\"hombre<\/p>\n

Cuando se trata de la mentira patol\u00f3gica, puede describirse como algo entre la mentira consciente y el delirio. En las traducciones, tienden a creerse sus propias mentiras.<\/p>\n

This makes it rather difficult to deal with them. How do you cope with a person who lies to your face so easily and buys what they’re saying?<\/p>\n

Some experts claim that compulsive liars don’t understand the difference between the fiction they create and the reality that is in front of them.<\/p>\n

Son elocuentes, atractivos y no muestran ninguno de los signos que suelen mostrar los mentirosos (mirar hacia abajo y hacer largas pausas).<\/p>\n

Les gusta presentarse como v\u00edctimas o como h\u00e9roes...<\/h2>\n

\"hombre<\/p>\n

If you’ve had a pathological liar in your midst, I’m sure you’ve noticed that they always play the victim or the hero.<\/p>\n

There’s no in-between. The purpose of their stories is to tell lies that will garner them the admiration or sympathy that they feed on or to simply help them be accepted.<\/p>\n

Inconscientemente anhelan atenci\u00f3n y validaci\u00f3n constantes, algo que sus mentiras bien pensadas nunca dejan de conseguirles.<\/p>\n

Ser el centro de atenci\u00f3n es como una droga para ellos.<\/p>\n

They’re quick on their feet<\/h2>\n

\"amiga<\/p>\n

Compulsive liars are quick thinkers. Even when you think you\u2019ve caught them in a lie, they will masterfully prove to you why they’re not to be messed with.<\/p>\n

They can even make you feel embarrassed for daring to question their stories. One can say that they are master manipulators who know just how to use others’ weaknesses against them.<\/p>\n

Les cuesta muy poco esfuerzo producir una mentira convincente, sin pausas ni rodeos. Se podr\u00eda decir que es pura artesan\u00eda.<\/p>\n

Compulsive Lies Vs. White Lies: What’s The Difference?<\/h2>\n

Como todos sabemos, todas las personas mienten. En alg\u00fan momento, todos nos enfrentamos a una realidad que (aparentemente) no nos deja m\u00e1s remedio que recurrir a una mentirijilla piadosa.<\/p>\n

I’ve read somewhere that people tell approximately 1,6 lies each day. And as you can rightfully guess, these would all be considered white lies.<\/p>\n

Sin embargo, la mentira patol\u00f3gica se encuentra en el otro extremo del espectro. Esas mentiras son constantes y se producen con regularidad. En la mayor\u00eda de los casos, no tienen ning\u00fan prop\u00f3sito evidente.<\/p>\n

Below, I\u2019ll examine the captivating differences between pathological lies and white lies.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 White lies<\/h3>\n

\"hombre<\/p>\n

The first and most important thing to note is that white lies don’t happen on a habitual basis. They are considered harmless and usually told to make someone feel better.<\/p>\n

White lies can also be told to spare a loved one’s feelings, which has no malicious intent. To help you get a clear picture, here are examples of perfectly innocent white lies:<\/p>\n

- “Oh, I’m sorry, I can’t attend the meeting today. I\u2019ve had a throbbing headache since this morning!”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 “I’ve paid the energy bill, babe. I have no idea why they shut the power off, I swear!”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 “I was late for work\/school because my car wouldn’t start so I had to go by bus, which took ages. Sorry!”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

All of these are merely excuses to justify the real reason for the person’s actions. They mean no harm to anyone; they simply help a person get out of an uncomfortable situation.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Pathological lies<\/h3>\n

\"hombre<\/p>\n

En cambio, las mentiras patol\u00f3gicas pintan un panorama completamente distinto. Estas mentiras se dicen compulsiva y regularmente.<\/p>\n

Nunca parece que se obtenga ning\u00fan beneficio de ellas, ni hay una raz\u00f3n obvia. Su prop\u00f3sito es hacer que el narrador parezca el h\u00e9roe o la v\u00edctima de su historia.<\/p>\n

Compulsive liars don’t exhibit a fear of being uncovered, and they rarely feel a stitch of guilt for what they’re doing.<\/p>\n

He aqu\u00ed algunos ejemplos del tipo de mentiras compulsivas que un mentiroso patol\u00f3gico dir\u00e1 sin sudar:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 They will make up an entire story regarding an event that never took place and, worst of all, brag about false achievements that aren’t based in reality.<\/p>\n

\u2022 They will make up an illness that they DON’T have and claim that their life is in jeopardy when they’re perfectly healthy.<\/p>\n

\u2022 They might claim to be related to well-known people (famous actors, musicians, poets) to impress someone and score points, without ever fearing that they might get caught.<\/p>\n

Las mentiras blancas y las patol\u00f3gicas son fundamentalmente diferentes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Mientras que la primera es una mentira inocente que no causa da\u00f1o a nadie, la segunda es malintencionada y se crea con falsos pretextos.<\/p>\n

C\u00f3mo tratar a un mentiroso compulsivo<\/h2>\n

\"mujer<\/p>\n

Enfrentarse a alguien que muestra signos de mentira patol\u00f3gica puede ser extremadamente abrumador.<\/p>\n

Si pretendes crear una relaci\u00f3n significativa con esta persona, tienes que ser consciente de que te llevar\u00e1 tiempo, paciencia y mucha perseverancia.<\/p>\n

What’s important to bear in mind is that this person most likely means no harm, nor do they wish to benefit from their lies.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a compulsive behavior that the person often cannot help but engage in. When confronting them, it’s best to go into it with a calm head and good intentions.<\/p>\n

Otra cosa que debes tener en cuenta es que hay casos en los que la mentira patol\u00f3gica est\u00e1 relacionada con problemas m\u00e1s profundos, como diversos trastornos mentales.<\/p>\n

Intenta mantener una conversaci\u00f3n racional con ellos para descubrir posibles s\u00edntomas subyacentes que puedan ser la causa real de su comportamiento.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Con un poco de suerte, puede que sean receptivos a esto y est\u00e9n dispuestos a buscar ayuda profesional que pueda cambiar las cosas.<\/p>\n

Si sigues teniendo problemas para afrontarlos, nunca est\u00e1 de m\u00e1s hablar con un terapeuta.<\/p>\n

Principales conclusiones<\/h2>\n

\"joven<\/p>\n

Un mentiroso compulsivo es una persona que miente patol\u00f3gicamente sin un motivo obvio (o razonable) que le lleve a ese preocupante comportamiento.<\/p>\n

Their lies can be very well-executed, elaborate, and full of details, which makes this behavior all the more fascinating. These pathological lies don’t bring any positive changes to the person, and they can cause harm to others.<\/p>\n

It’s imperative to remember that even though their lying can be difficult to understand and deal with, they aren’t believed to wish harm to anyone by telling them.<\/p>\n

Dealing with a pathological liar can be troubling and stressful, but since this is not a medically-accepted condition, there’s no treatment for its betterment (just yet).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sin embargo, este puede<\/em> ser un signo de una enfermedad preexistente (un trastorno de la personalidad) que puede ser atendido por un profesional m\u00e9dico.<\/p>\n

It’s important not to engage in lengthy conversations with pathological liars.<\/p>\n

If you’re familiar with their elaborate stories that you know aren’t true, it’s best for your mental health to simply smile and move on.<\/p>\n

Being around people engaging in pathological lying can be distressing, which is why it’s best to surround yourself with those who you know are trustworthy and genuine.<\/p>\n
