I suffer from severe somatic clinical lycanthropy, AMA
"Clinical Lycanthropy is a psychiatric syndrome within which the patient has the delusional belief of turning into a wolf. Zoanthropy is a psychiatric syndrome within which the patient has the delusional belief of turning into an animal. Zoanthropy is observed on all continents and animals"
I would like to state that I am currently getting treatment for my mental illness and I no longer believe I turn into an animal. But, I still do suffer from the somatic symptoms that come with it. I thought it would be a good idea to tell some of my experiences with dealing with this mental illness. It is not a widely understood illness and has vast ranges of different effects on people. I will answer any and all questions regarding my disease as long as they are respectful and aren't mean spirited. Thank you and I hope to inform you all on this mental illness.
