which people lie the most and carry mythomania?
We, together with a group in European countries, did a survey about which nationalities lie the most, we were able to identify several people from Egypt, Iran and Turkey, we asked more than 45,000 people 2019 who live in different parts of European countries.
Egyptian people made records about liars and they have lied more, Egyptian number 1 and Iranian became number 2 so Turkish people of European countries became number 3
Liars and the role of culture in different cultures, liars are different. In European culture, a liar has more destructive and terrorist aspects. But in the culture of the Islamic countries, lying has become a profession and has become entrenched in their culture. For example, Arabs lie more and being a liar is an important part of their personality.
people who come from Arab countries lie to me more than others because it is in their religion that you can lie.
We have visited many countries in the world, the most lying nation after the Iranians and the Turks are unfortunately the Egyptians, that is, in matters of lying, the Egyptians are the first, the Iranians are the second, and the Turks are the third.
Now let's talk about the story of the blatant liars of several Egyptian men and women both in Europe and in Arab countries.
I traveled to Iraq and met a person named Abdul Nabi. Abdul Nabi introduced himself as a helicopter pilot and a fighter jet.
At night, I slept in the same hotel where Abdul Nabi was staying. At night, he came out and started talking and bargaining. One of their lies was that they said that they ran for the presidency of Egypt, but their request was rejected because they have important global economic sciences and graduated in the field of economics at a university in Paris. I also said that you have done a good job. make it?
He said they will not allow them.
In short, I told him good night and went to his room. I also thought of writing him a fake letter called a girl and leaving it behind the door of his hotel room. He woke up tomorrow and it will be clear whether they are literate or not.
When he woke up tomorrow, he said that my eyes hurt, so we should translate these letters for him.
I came back and said, can't you even read Arabic?
He said no, unfortunately.
The next day, he said that they had translated the letters for him and read them to him.
He started again and said that he was a detective of the Egyptian secret police and had been spying in the West for years.
I also said, forgive me, I don't have the patience to listen to your words, I have to go. Congratulations, whatever you are. Now, if I sit in front of you, you will leave the White House tomorrow.
Now let's talk about Ihab Munzer, an Egyptian living in Sweden.
Ihab changed in a few hours and they got some specialties. I thought that they have no age, how can we believe that this presidential guard is Hosni Mubarak and is a well-known person. Ehab said Gothard was the president of Egypt and the president's national security and life security advisor.
The next day he came and said that they were responsible for the security of the supplies of the Egyptian armed forces.
I said goodbye to him and left.
What's up, Miss Mona?
Mona said that there are judges in Sweden and they are one of Sweden's secret judges. When we started the investigation, this lady is not saying that she thought no one would ask questions and her lies would be revealed.
I said on the spot that it is enough, I heard it is enough, may God protect you.
Neshit Amir also said that he is a combat engineer and an engineer for the construction of F-16 jets. I let it go and left.
Next, Egyptians have a dirty habit that if you talk to them, they will slander and accuse you on the spot.
Unfortunately, Turks make up the dirtiest lies behind people's backs, so I suggest that you record every time you talk to a Turk
There are many other things to mention, unfortunately I don't have enough time.
I have seen the story of an Iranian, of course, thousands of people. Based on this, I wrote the article "Rhoan Gsanseh" and "Iranian temperament".
One day I saw an Iranian in Berlin and I asked him how many years have you lived here? He said, "I don't remember that I was born here and I am an engineer in the German Ministry of Defense." I also answered, do the employees of the German Ministry of Defense wear such pants and jackets as you are wearing?
Well, what's wrong with it? Well, I'm an earthy person, I don't like ties and pantsuits.
In short, we boarded for Hamburg. In the middle of the way, a number of people had not paid for the ticket. The police came. When the police came, the police started to control all the passengers. They came and said to me, I have forgotten my German language because of an illness. Please translate for me. I also said that you are a calculating man. Didn't you say that you are an employee of the German Ministry of Defense, why are you afraid?
He said yes, it's true, not everyone knows me.
In short, the police came and told all the passengers to prepare their ID cards and passports. No one had the right to get off. The doors of the trains were closed. In short, the Iranian man tried to go to the toilet, but it was too late. I replied that I don't know him, but I will translate if needed.
The police asked the Iranian man for an ID card. We saw that they have a doldong. A doldong is a card issued by the immigration department to those who are being deported from Germany.
In short, the police said that this man has no right to travel, but we will allow him, but he should make it clear and explain who they are going to, so that we know, Mr. Irani said that his sister lives in Hamburg and they are going to go to him. He gave his address to the police and the police left. I also came back and said that it is okay that you lied, but let this be a lesson that you should not lie again. If it was someone else, they would not have helped you at all, and they would have even let you go and arrested you. In short, he said, "Unfortunately, we have been raised with lies since our childhood, it is not easy to get out of this unbearable pain, and I also said that I agree. We have protected each other from God."
Lying is one of the common and common features of social interactions between humans.
This type of behavior also exists in some animals, such as monkeys. A lie often leads to benefit and to achieve something.
A person may lie in order not to be shamed in society. But this type of lying is not usually a sign of a dangerous mental condition. But pathological lying is different.
This type of lying can be one of the signs of mental disorders such as personality disorder. Pathological lying is a controversial issue in today's world.
In fact, this type of people tell forced lies without any clear motive.
This type of lying is different from non-pathological lying.
In non-pathological (non-pathological) lying, people benefit from the lie they tell. In this article, we will examine pathological lying in more detail, as well as examine its symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment.
👇
Based on my own experiences in European countries, I have seen many lies, even the lies of people with an Arab and Iranian background caused another person to be imprisoned.
An Iranian man talks to an Egyptian woman, and the Egyptian woman sends a letter to the government officials there, as if this person speaks very badly of this country and causes the person to be harassed. One day, the person will suspect that I have not said anything. Is he behaving like this? Finally, he realizes that yes, this lady is Egyptian.
What is pathological lying?
A pathological liar is someone who tells lies compulsively. While many reasons have been investigated for the development of this disease, no one knows exactly why someone lies like this. Abnormal lying is not a specific symptom of mental illness. But in pathological lying, a person lies without achieving any benefit. Some studies have shown that things that affect the central nervous system may cause a person to lie pathologically. Compulsive lying is also a feature of personality disorders such as antisocial personality disorder. Trauma or injury to the head along with an imbalance in cortisol levels can play a role in this. It is not clear whether the person suffering from this disorder is aware of the lie he is telling or not.
Pathological lying can make socializing difficult and lead to significant problems among different people.
Reasons for pathological lying
It is not clear whether pathological lying itself is a symptom of a mental illness or is a type of mental disorder itself. For example, pathological lying is one of the characteristics of mental disorders such as delusional disorder and personality disorder.
Signs and symptoms of pathological lying
Pathological lying occurs compulsively and may begin by telling small, harmless lies at first. These lies may gradually become more dramatic. These types of lies are usually identified with unnecessary details. People who lie regularly do not necessarily have pathological lying. What distinguishes this type of lie from other non-pathological lies is the lack of motivation. Therefore, someone who constantly exaggerates things to make themselves look funnier or lies to cover up mistakes they've made is unlikely to be a pathological liar. These lies are clear motivations that advance special interests.
Pathological lies can often be detected by others, which can ultimately be harmful to the sufferer. For example, a person may make false accusations or make grandiose claims about their past that are easy for others to verify and understand.
Detection of pathological lying
Pathological lying is not diagnosed as a mental illness or disorder. A psychologist or psychiatrist may consider this behavior as a sign of another mental disorder. Of course, pathological lying can be an independent symptom. Because some people tell pathological lies without any other symptoms. Diagnosing this behavior is often challenging for psychologists and psychiatrists because there are no psychological or biological tests to diagnose it.
To diagnose most mental illnesses, the doctor uses talking and checking the psychological records of the person. Some people with pathological lying may not be honest with the counselor about the problem, so the counselor may talk to the person's family and other friends to check.
How to deal with someone who is a pathological liar?
Dealing with someone who lies pathologically is challenging. Building and maintaining a relationship with these people may take time. It is necessary to remember that the person may not intend to harm or benefit from these lies. Pathological lying can be compulsive and often results in negative consequences for the person lying. Therefore, try to avoid answering their anger and blaming them for lying. It is also helpful to be aware that pathological lying may be a symptom of an underlying mental health condition. Talking to the person about whether they have other symptoms can help them identify the problem and seek help from a doctor or therapist.
Treatment of pathological lying
Since pathological lying is not a recognized independent disease, there is no official treatment for it. If the psychologist has diagnosed another mental disorder in the patient, he may treat that disorder to resolve it. For example, treatment for personality disorders usually involves psychotherapy and medication. Because pathological lying can be harmful to others, the counselor may also suggest individual counseling for loved ones. A therapist will work with them to help them manage their responses to the problem.
Factitious disorder
Factitious disorder, sometimes called Munchausen syndrome, is a serious mental disorder. In this type of disorder, the person behaves as if he has a mental or physical illness. Munchausen syndrome occurs by proxy when the patient comments that others have mental or physical disorders. Among the causes of this type of disorder, the following can be mentioned:
The last words of the good doctor
Pathological lying occurs when a person compulsively lies without a clear motive for doing so. These lies may be detected by telling unnecessary details, but they are often easy to spot. Pathological lies may be told without any benefit and may also be hurtful to others. It is important to remember that lying is a compulsion and the person who lies sickly does not intend to harm others. Since pathological lying is not a recognized disease, there is no official treatment for it. However, pathological lying may be a symptom of a mental disorder that a counselor can identify, such as a personality disorder.
This Is How Often People Lie in a Day
Deception researchers investigate under what circumstances we are liable to let loose a whopper.
How to Lie?
Lying can be complicated and difficult, especially if you don’t do it very often. Beginner liars must learn a few basics about what makes a good lie, such as sticking with a simple lie and making sure the lie is believable. If you plan the lie ahead of time, it helps to spend some time memorizing the details of the lie by writing it down and practicing it until it sounds convincing. Possibly the most important part is telling the lie convincingly. You’ll need to avoid some of the most common things that give away a lie, such as fidgeting, changing your voice, and not making eye contact.
1Keep your lie simple. Include details that make your lie seem legitimate, but not so many that it becomes complicated. An elaborate lie means more details that you have to keep track of and can often mean more explaining. A simple, straightforward lie is easier to maintain.
For example, an elaborate lie might be, “I’m late because when I got onto I-70, it was so backed up that I had to reverse all the way down the entrance ramp and I ended up taking country roads instead.” A simple version of that lie would be, “Traffic was pretty backed up on I-70.”
The simplicity of the lie can show that you don’t have any other details to add to it.
2Avoid including other people in the lie. Using someone as a witness or alibi makes your lie more complicated than it needs to be. If the person you lie to checks your alibi, they may find out you lied.
If you use someone else in your lie, be sure to tell them. Some people may not appreciate being part of your lie.
If you are planning a lie ahead of time, at least talk to the person and see if they are willing to cover for you, as opposed to telling them after you already used them in a lie.
3Make your lie plausible. When you lie, only include information that is believable. Don’t exaggerate to a point where the listener will start to question what you are saying. Make your lie as realistic as possible.
Be critical of your own lie and see if it seems reasonable. Don't use only your own judgment but think about if the person you are lying to will find it reasonable.
For example, telling your wife that a bird flew in the house and broke her lamp is not a plausible lie. Telling her you stumbled over the dog and knocked the lamp over is more plausible.
4 Include something truthful in the lie. Completely false lies may be more easily detected, but if you sprinkle truth into the lie it is more believable. Find a way to show proof that part of your lie is true to strengthen the lie as a whole.
It is easier to express real emotion when you tell the truth than it is when you lie. If you emphasize the true part you can mask your emotions.
For example, you stayed out late with a group of friends that included your ex-girlfriend Holly. Tell your current girlfriend, “I was hanging out with Carl, Stacy, and Steve.” It’s true that you were with those people, but you’re lying about Holly being there, too.
5 Lie before you have to. You can avoid lying under pressure by initiating the conversation about the subject you are lying about. Lie voluntarily before you are asked anything. The listener may not think you are lying since you volunteered the information.
If the person you are lying to is already upset or suspicious, they are more likely to be critical of the lie you offer. If they have not thought of the situation yet, they may be more likely to accept what you say without further questions.
If you go see your friend’s band and they sound terrible, go up to them after the set and say, “You guys rocked!” before they have a chance to ask you about it.
1Write down the details of the lie. One of the hardest things about lying is keeping up with what you said. It's even harder if you have to repeat the lie to many people over the course of time. The best way to avoid this is to write down the lie.
If you have time to plan the lie out, write it down first. If you lie spontaneously, write down who you lied to and what you said.
If the lie is time sensitive and will go away, you may not have to keep track of the paper you wrote the lie on for very long. If the consequences of the lie are long term, you’ll need to put the paper somewhere safe.
Writing helps you make things clear and remember them. Even if you immediately throw the paper away, writing can help you establish the lie in your mind.
2Practice saying the lie out loud. If something is true, it is often easier to remember, but if you are lying you may forget exactly what you want to say. Repeating a lie over and over again will help you deliver it more effectively.[1]
When you are lying on the spot, you may not have the chance to practice your lie. You can repeat what you said later on so you remember exactly how you lied.
If you have time to practice the lie ahead of time, you can recite it in different ways to find the best delivery of the lie.
3Record a video of yourself lying. For small lies, the video camera is not necessary, but if you are preparing a big lie, video can help. Watch yourself on video to decide if the lie sounded convincing. If not, figure out a way to adjust it.[2]
This is like saying the lie to yourself in a mirror, but saying it to a mirror is actually more distracting. Taking a video of yourself will help you see whether your delivery looked convincing or not.
If your delivery is believable, watch the video a few times to memorize the wording and presentation of the lie.
1Keep your hands away from your face. Liars tend to fidget with their hands a lot. Keep your hands at your sides if you are standing or on your lap if you are sitting. Don’t rub your chin or your nose. Don’t run your hands through your hair.[3]
2
Remain still. Swaying back and forth, tapping your foot, or generally moving a lot are signs that you are lying. Don’t shrug your shoulders a lot either. Keeping your whole body relaxed and unmoving adds poise to your appearance, and it will keep people from being suspicious.
3
Keep your arms open and not folded. Folding the arms is considered closed off posture and when you lie it is a giveaway to people. Don’t cross your arms. Keep them at your sides, or if you are sitting down, lay your hands on your lap.[4]
4
Control your blinking. Liars tend to blink nervously, and it’s an easy sign for people to notice. Also be aware that keeping your eyes open for too long can become suspicious, so make a conscious effort to blink as you normally would.
5
Use eye contact to your benefit. One of the surest signs that someone is lying is shifting their eyes away from the listener. You can control your eye contact to mask your lie. Make enough eye contact to make the person believe you.[5]
You have to find a balance between too little eye contact and too much. If you stare at the person without looking away you will seem as suspicious as if you never meet their eyes.
6
Keep your body facing the person you’re lying to. Turning your body to the side or turning away is seen as a sign that you are trying to hide something. Make sure that your body stays angled toward them. Keep your eyes in their direction, as well, and don’t stare off into the distance.
7
Use physical touch to create intimacy. When you are lying, appropriately touch the person you are lying to. Place your hand on their shoulder, grab their hand, or gently touch their leg if you are sitting by them. By touching them you will soften them toward you and make them more trusting.
You need to take account of whether or not you are in a close enough relationship with the person to initiate physical touch with them. In many situations, this won’t be the case.
1
Keep your voice normal. Another unconscious change that occurs when you lie is that the pitch of your voice gets higher. Actively moderate the pitch of your voice so that stays at the your usual level. Make sure your voice is appropriate to the situation.[6]
The fact that the voice pitch rises during a lie is somewhat common knowledge, so people may be listening for it if they suspect you of lying.
You can even speak slightly lower than you normally would to balance out the tendency to go higher.
Also pay attention to your tone and volume so that it is appropriate to the situation. Don’t speak with a cheerful tone if you need to sound sorry or a serious tone if your lie should sound encouraging.
2
Give straightforward replies. When you are asked questions, give a full answer but don’t let yourself start to ramble. Don’t pause a lot or add filler words that are unnecessary. Rambling or getting off topic is one sure sign that you’re lying.[7]
It will take practice, but find the balance between an answer that is too short and one that is too long. Both can seem suspicious.
3
Use casual language. A natural tendency during a lie is to become overly formal. People will notice the difference from your typical demeanor. Use contractions like “didn’t” and “wasn’t” as opposed to “did not” and “was not.” Don’t be afraid of slang or colloquial terms because these will appear as normal for conversation.
For example, say “I don’t know,” as opposed to, “I am not entirely sure.”
1
Stick to your story. After you tell the lie, you may be asked to tell the story again, or give a fuller explanation. Do not back down and take back the lie you told. Stick to it and repeat it as closely as possible to the way you told it the first time. Asking the same question multiple times is a tactic to get you to give up the lie.
2
Add a small extra detail. When you are asked for more information, don’t add too much to the lie so that it becomes complicated. Do your best to add one small piece of information that will enhance the lie but not make it too hard to maintain.
3
Answer the question with a question. Sometimes you can disorient people and distract them by answering a question with another question. Say something like, "Why don't you believe me?" or "Did you hear a different story from someone else?". This puts the person questioning you in the hot seat to answer.
4
Say you don't remember telling the lie if you happen to almost get caught. This will make the other person think that your lie was just their imagination. Beware though- as this doesn't usually work that well, and if it doesn't, you can get caught.
1
Admit that you lied and apologize. At some point, you may be caught in a lie and it is obvious you can’t get out of it. Someone may have found video that proves you lied, or documents of some kind. Rather than extend the lie and make things worse, admit what you did and face the consequences.
You will usually gain some credibility back with the person by admitting it rather than lying again.
Learn from your mistakes and try to avoid them the next time you need to lie about something.
This may seem counterintuitive, but you will soon find that a huge amount of weight will be lifted from you, and you won't have to keep in your lie.
Explain why you lied without making it an excuse. Once you admit the lie, you are likely to be questioned further. Do not try to justify why you lied, but explain what your thought process was. Tell the person why you felt you needed to lie and why the truth would not have worked for you.[8]
The person may not accept your explanation or may say it does not make sense or is not good enough. Do not argue, but affirm to them that you stand by your reasoning, even if it ended up being wrong.
3
Tell the person how you will make up for it. Lying is likely to cause damage in one way or another, so once you are caught, you will have to fix things. Give the person some concrete steps you plan to take to remedy the situation. Be honest about what you are going to do and then follow through on doing it.[9]
The things you need to fix may not be problems as much as strained relationships. You may need to do some emotional work to show your remorse and make up for the lie.
