Alice in Wonderland syndrome

The word "Alice's syndrome of Wonderland" was introduced by the psychiatrist John Todd (1914-1987) in the UK in 1955 and covers a series of symptoms. As envisioned by 12 Todd, this group includes an illusion of delocalization, disintegration of personality, supernatural phenomena, physical and psychological duality, and the size, distance or position of stationary objects in the field of view Contains a change. Fantasy lifting feeling, fantastical change in sense of passage of time. By the way, Todd knows that he is not the first person to explain the symptoms of these individuals. After World War I and World War II, many of them published soldiers on literature on hysteria, 13 papers on general neurology, 14 papers, -17 and occipital wounds. Furthermore, in 1933 and 1952, Coleman 20 and Lippmann were 21 years old. The name has not been changed to the same name, but these symptoms are compared with the experience of Alice in Wonderland. Lipman 21 is also the first person to suggest that the physical change experienced by Alice might be inspired by the fantasy of the body pattern that Lewis Carrolle personally experienced. Carol (British mathematician, Characters Rutwidge Dodgson pseudonym, 1832-1898) suffers from migraine, and his diary indicates that his attack sometimes has an auditory phenomenon 22. It has not been proved that Dodgson experienced hearing phenomena before writing his book 23. Another assumption is that Dodgson knows or tried hallucinogenic mushroom Amanita. What, and Alice in Wonderland, Dodgson created this role as much as the attractiveness of the doctor and the attraction of the target audience. By adopting this name, Todd has chosen an unforgettable nickname to solve a series of symptoms that have been described separately from each other.

Alice's syndrome of Wonderland, also known as Todd syndrome, is a rare, temporary episode of body strain described in the 1950s. In these episodes people with Alice in Wonder feel as if their body is bigger or smaller than normal or the surrounding objects or characters are larger or smaller than usual. Silk is the same as the famous character Carroll experienced in the story. In fact, some people think that Carol itself is also suffering from migraine and that some of his own experience may be the source of inspiration for his writing. 1 2

Alice's syndrome in Wonderland is named after Lewis Carrolle's famous 19th century novel "Alice in Wonderland". In the story, the title character Alice experienced many situations similar to micro and giant. A thorough explanation of the metamorphosis explicitly described in the novel is their first one to explain the physical distortion associated with this situation. It is speculated that Carol may have written a story based on what he himself directly experienced. It was due to microvascular events caused by many migraines he knew. Some also think that Carol may have temporal lobe epilepsy.
