Doubts

[Ross_MR]

Hello, I really don’t know what to say as an introduction.

However, for some circumstances I got a doubt. Could someone get anxiety from Mythomania or the other way around?

Or is it more related to depression?

I don’t see any psychologist at the moment that I could ask...

So I was wondering if someone could assist me, please.

Any long term illness whether physical or mental in nature can cause (further) mental health problems. Also sleep issues, relationship issues, self esteem issues etc. There doesn't feel like an end to the cycle sometimes but it can be broken. If my understanding of what mythomania is is correct then I think it's lying uncontrollably??? There must be a certain 'rush' that comes with that whether it be anxiety or excitement. Also there may be a pressure or excitement not to get caught, to get away with more or bigger lies? That's got to add to the anxiety. But if lying us a coping mechanism, not lying would presumably cause anxiety too?! Rock and a hard place. With regards to depression, why are you lying so much? Do you like what you see in the mirror (literally and figuratively) or are you trying to escape something/make yourself sound or feel better in some way? I think all those things could be linked. Just my opinion though 👍
