Erotomania - De Clerambault's Syndrome

Описание: The French psychiatrist De Clerambault described erotomania in the paper he published in 1921. Erotomania has been a condition for centuries. as far back as Hippocrates. It occurs when an individual, usually a young single, unemployed and socially isolated woman has the delusion that a person of higher status than her - such as somebody famous, in public life, royal - is in love with her and communicating with her by secret messages.
