[quote=Anonymous]Based on what I observe (and acknowledging I have no mental health background here), I tend to suspect undiagnosed ADHD. He said the more he feels like he needs to get something done, the more unable he is to do it, like some kind of wall goes up around the issue in his mind. And then I guess he compartmentalizes it and lies about it to avoid it and avoid questions. We are not talking wild lies like he use to be in the backstreet boys or something, so I guess not like the nytimes article, though if someone could gift a link, I would love to read it. His lies are more avoidance lies to cover up laziness (which is where I suspect ADHD), and also exaggerations to make a point or to make something/himself seem more interesting (his words of why he started lying in college).
