"Walking Corpse Syndrome"
Walking Corpse Syndrome(The Cotard delusion) is a rare neuropsychiatric disorder in which people hold a delusional belief that they are dead, are putrefying, that they have lost their soul, or a vital organ. They may even think they do not have blood. This delusion is usually expanded to the degree that the patient might claim that he can smell his own rotting flesh and feel worms crawling through his skin. Paradoxically, being “dead” often gives the patient the nation of being immortal. This syndrome is a mixture of depression and suicidal behavior. These are people who think they have lost everything, even the ownership of their body. Unfortunately, antidepressants are not helpful in the treatment, and adequate remedy has not been found yet.
