My (seperated) husband has ADHD and anxiety disorders (along with mild ocd and dyslexia, they commonly go along with add btw). The Amen clinic was very helpful in getting the right medication (unfortunately he doesn't always take them) after trial and error with other doctors that didn't work. I recommend reading Dr. Amens book on the 6 forms of ADD, it will help you decide if he has it and what to do about. Compulsive lying is a common symptom of it, and my husband does it alot to. That is one of the toughest things to overcome and can't say I have a good answer for it yet.
