When Somebody Believes In His Lies

People who have the habit of making LIES ... normal na lang sa kanya ang pagsinungaling ... like going to the bathroom when he feels like it ... or raiding the refrigerator when hunger pangs strike.

What is alarming is dahil normal na lang ito sa kanya, he doesn't have the slightest idea how his lies broke other people's hearts and they don't have an iota of cognizance of how his lies are affecting the people nearest to him. And the worst of all, dahil normal na lang ang fibbing sa kanya pati siya naniniwala na TOTOO ang mga kasinungalingan niya.

Sometimes he has to resort to gas-lighting to put more salt in the wound. An example of gas-lighting is when an abuser tries to control the victim by twisting their sense of reality. Can you imagine a guy shoplifting and then denying it happened?

Kailangan pa ba ang CCTV para patunayang sinungaling siya? At binaliktad pa nga ang situation ... ngayon siya na ang nagrereklamo sa reklamo mo  despite CCTV footages to verify the veracity of your claims.  He dismiss the accusation non-chalantly ... making you question your sanity: "Tama ba ako?... pero he denied it ... eh ano yong nakita ko sa TV screen? ... nagshoplift nga ba siya?" Poor gaslighting victim ... pati ang katinoan niya ... kinuquestion na niya!

When somebody vacillates to the extremes that anything abnormal becomes normal to him ... he should not dismiss it as a matter of a factly ... and treat that with a cavalier attitude because this is something out of line. 

Pathological lying that segue into gaslighting is a symptom of various personality disorders, including antisocial, narcissistic, and histrionic personality disorders. Other conditions, such as borderline personality disorder, may also lead to frequent lies, but the lies themselves are not considered pathological.
