Capgras delusion – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

From the page: “The Capgras delusion or Capgras’ syndrome is a rare disorder in which a person holds a delusional belief that an acquaintance, usually a close family member or spouse, has been replaced by an identical looking imposter.”

I think I may have this, the family member in question being myself.

It IS hard to tell though, I’ve been watching myself very carefully, but up till now I have been far too cunning to do anything blatent enough to give myself away.

Having said that, sometimes when I get up in the mornings I find that during the night someone has rotated my house completely by 180 degrees (as can be ascertained by the location of the sun on the opposite to that where it was the night before).

I find it had to believe that anyone other than myself would care enough about me to go to such great lengths to cause me confusion, bafflement, and distress. This certainly does lead a certain credence to my belief.

I wonder what my ultimate intentions towards myself are.

It’s all a bit worrying really.
