Through documented cases—like Cotard’s walking-corpse delusion, face-distorting prosopometamorphopsia, clinical lycanthropy, Capgras, somatoparaphrenia, Alice in Wonderland syndrome, Ekbom delusional parasitosis, and depersonalization—the hosts explain how these syndromes alter a person’s sense of self, body, and reality. The discussion covers clinical signs, possible neurological and psychiatric causes, examples from modern case studies, and how treatment and insight can sometimes restore a connection to reality. It’s a concise, unsettling look at how fragile our experience of being human can be.","meta_description":"This episode of Fringe Beyond Limits explores rare psychiatric and neurological conditions that fracture perception and identity.
