Would it be correct to say "a lie you knew you were doing it while a mistake you didn't mean to do it" if the psychiatrist asks me what's the difference between a lie and a mistake?

Q: would it be correct to say "a lie you knew you were doing it while a mistake you didn't mean to do it" if the psychiatrist asks me what's the difference between a lie and a mistake?

: You are correct. Lying is intentional but mistake is unintentional. You know when you lie but you make a mistake when you do not know.
