This post was in response to the wildly prevalent notion observed here, that because he is a pathological liar (Hallmark of the mental illness Narcissistic personality disorder!) NOTHING he ever said has any truth.
No one is ever, anything, always.
IMO, the narcissist is always a pathological liar, but imp, one must look at the needs being met by the lying.
Motivation/ Need fulfillment.
Certainly, if one comes from the perspective that he suffered with pathological narcissism then, the lie I am rich, I am the best looking thing on the planet, etc. meets a narcissists needs.
My contention and confusion -- Lm posting all over the place that he was in diapers and his mom is running around in face masks, and his father has been baker acted over and over, to someone he is trying to impress, does just the opposite --- it is NOT impressive.
If I met you, and wanted to impress you, would you possibly be more impressed with I earn 250 K (lie) or my dad has a long psych history.
There is no debate, imo, he is, an individual suffering from NPD, whose primary cause is intense childhood abuse.
LM is a pathological liar truthful utterances, however, are, without a doubt, highly likely.
The first person writing by him, IMO is all true. It defeats his false image there is no reason to make all that negative stuff up!
