RE: 'The King who believed he was a Cow' - Tales from the edge of Psychology (#1).

Moooooo
Never heard of this one, very interesting. I would assume that there is a disorder for acting/thinking you are virtually any animal ?

Further more, is there a condition where you think you are a cow that thinks it is a human ? .... probably an Adam Sandler movie plot in there somewhere ...

Cheers

Sort:  

So far I've only come across the two - Wolves and cows. But you'd think so, I can't see why mental illness would be so strangely, bovine-centric ?! Curiouser and curiouser.

So, a human who believes he is a cow, who believes he is a human? I mean, we could all be suffering from that one. It could be the great silent epidemic - meta dellusion. I like it.

Maybe in 2098 they'll all be looking back wondering how we could have missed the signs. Veganism, leather jackets, dairy-lea dunkers?! How could we have been so blind.

Meta dellusion.. oh my the rabbit hole.
