Capgras Syndrome

Marie5656 · 02-08-2007, 05:26 AM

I just read this article, and am sharing it simply because I have never heard of this syndrome before, and found the article facinating. People with this syndrome, suffer from the dilusion that people, and in some cases pets or objects have been replaced by duplicates. This is not intended as humor..it is a genuine condition.
