Cotard's Delusion - Walking Corpse Syndrome

In Cotard's Syndrome, people believe that they are dead, dying, immortal or they do not exist, and they believe that their body parts, organs, blood or their soul are missing.

Thank you again for this excellent summary. You should also make illustrative case studies. Why is this syndrome more frequent among women? Is there an explanation!

Thank you for the suggestion of illustrative case studies - a good point/idea, gergely. I am not sure whether there is a theory as to why the incidence of different mental illnesses is more common in males or females - a very good question. If you click on the forward arrow 'Cotard's Delusion - Walking Corpse Syndrome' towards the bottom of the short under my icon, you will find the long version of the video, and there is a short case illustration there of Madamoiselle X.
Best wishes, Beth
