Synonym for chronic lying would be a mythomaniac or a pathological liar.

No it can't.
A pathological liar may also be schizophrenic. Both are defects in the brain and schizophrenia may be the cause of pathological lying.
Treatment for pathological lying typically involves therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, to address underlying issues and teach healthier coping strategies. Medication may be prescribed if there are underlying mental health conditions contributing to the lying behavior. Building trust and open communication in relationships is also important in managing pathological lying.
Yes it is called Pathological Liar or Compulsive Liar. If someone is lying to gain something whether it be admiration, power, money, etc. this is a Pathological Liar. If someone is lying about everything even small details or changes stories around for no apparent reason this is a Compulsive Liar. I personally think both are dangerous and both can and/or will lie for some sort of gain. Usually a Compulsive Liar will lie, know it's a lie, and actually believe it. A Pathological Liar might know they are lying and not necessarily believe it but will defend it. Hope this helped.
Fist to the face
Pathological lying is not amenable to discipline. Your teenager needs professional help.
Most people with Asperger's Syndrome are too honest for their own good. Pathological lying is another problem altogether.
It would be nice if there were! The only treatment for pathological lying is therapy. Unfortunately, most pathological liars are not interested in being cured. They do not think there is anything wrong with them.
