What Causes Compulsive Lying Disorder?

My friend makes up stories all the time. He has even gone so far as to lie and claim to have gotten one woman pregnant then started saying that he wants to drug her and make her have a miscarriage. The problem is he has never even been alone with this woman. She knows him but not in a sexual sense.

This could be due to personality issues. That will require intensive psycho dynamic psychotherapy. Still the prognosis is not good.
