We have been having problems with my little brother (he's 26 this Nov) for years now in regards to stealing, lying etc and it is getting to the point where I can't stand to be in the same room with him!
We've not had the greatest of childhoods (who hasn't though!) and he uses this as an excuse constantly (althought to be fair, his wasn't any worse than my own or my older sisters).
He has a daughter of his own now and we all thought this would be the making of him but alas we've been proven right and he's screwing that up too.
Is compulsive lying a mental health issue? I'm not sure what advice I'm looking for to be fair but I wondered if anyone had any experiences and if so, how did they deal with it?

I know he smokes the odd bit of hash Sherry but never thought it might've become a problem.
To be fair he's lied and stole for years now and it just keeps getting worse and worse!
