What? Are you saying your illness is lying? I'm not really following...
No, I'm saying it can lead to lying in other people, because people begin to realize it's easier to come up with little conversational lies than it is to think of what things in one's own life are relevant enough to mention in order to keep a conversation alive. I'm saying me being socially slow is the illness. One person I know likened it to dyslexia but for charisma instead of literacy.
Ah gotcha, that makes sense. Thanks!
