Talk:Cotard's syndrome

message: Bliss (1985 film). Might be more explicit in the novel. Dysmorodrepanis (talk) 18:06, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Possible references

message: I couldn't figure out what "unless regarded as just oneself to another or others" means -- and I really did try to make sense of it. Can anyone figure out the intent of that phrase and hopefully clarify it? I'm thinking it could mean that either that the Cotard's delusion sufferer might still believe in death as oblivion for others, but regards his or herself as an exception, or possibly that death is universally oblivion, and the experiences of the Cotard's delusion sufferer are actually being experienced by someone else, who is experiencing a very intense hallucination or dream of being the (actually dead) Cotard's delusion sufferer.75.49.237.5 (talk) 02:34, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't see that text in the article. Perhaps it's been edited out? TheVictor99 (talk) 23:14, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Unclear text

message: It adds nothing of value to the article and it is entirely unreferenced (The one alleged reference, http://www.radiolab.org/blogs/radiolab-blog/ is obviously not a reliable source and doesn't even support the text it claims to.) Our verifiability policy states clearly and unequivocally that the burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material. Please do not re-add unferenced material.

message: Who are Young and Leafhead?  This section needs some context; the info seems to be out of nowhere.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.54.250.11 (talk) 18:39, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Clarification/context needed in Signs and Symptoms section 

message: A New Scientist article  describes 8 aciclovir-associated cases, 7 in people with renal failure, referencing an abstract: . I can't access the abstract but perhaps someone who can could summarise this. Espresso Addict (talk) 07:46, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  New ref for association with aciclovir 

message: Is Jim Jarmusch's 1995 film Dead Man truly an example of Cotard's syndrome? The article states "everyone who meets the protagonist [William Blake] believes he is . . . already dead." I must point out that I don't agree with this statement—why would bounty hunters be chasing a man if they think he's already dead?—but let's say, for the sake of this discussion, that everyone in the film does believe Blake is already dead; would that constitute a case of Cotard's syndrome? It's my understanding that the Cotard delusion refers to one's impression of one's own existence (or lack thereof), not to what others believe.  ♦  I'll leave this open to discussion for a while. Then, unless someone presents a convincing argument for its inclusion, I'll remove the Dead Man reference from the Cotard article's "Popular Culture" section.

thread_title:  [[Dead Man]] = False "Popular Culture" Example? 

message: Early in the article: "Cotard's delusion is not mentioned in either the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)."
Later: "According to the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition), Cotard's delusion falls under the category of somatic delusions, those that involve bodily functions or sensations."
The second assertion is unreferenced. The first refers to the now-obsolete DSM-4. I don't currently have access to the DSM-5 (I'm on a work computer) to check that volume for Cotard's. IAmNitpicking (talk) 14:51, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I just searched a digital copy of the DSM-5. The word "Cotard" does not appear. I will make appropriate changes. ubiquity (talk) 16:29, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cotard's Delusion both is, and is not, mentioned in the DSM? 

message: I removed this section. It contained three sentences. The first was incorrect, the second made no sense without the first, and the third didn't seem to warrant an entire section, especially since it was unsourced. ubiquity (talk) 16:33, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Diagnosis section 

message: Where are the studies and citations that Aciclovir links to Cotard? Mentioned in various other pages/languages with extremely poor citation or referencing; from a scientific perspective not enough evidence and poor quality.--𝔏92934923525 (talk) 22:17, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Cotard delusion →  – It seems like the title and the actual name of the condition have a major discrepancy with each other. Should it be renamed to "Cotard's delusion" instead, or left as it is? Explodicator7331 (talk) 15:41, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

message: I'm sure I have seen a study saying in retrospect there is a likelihood Chase had such a condition. Would be good if someone with academic archive access could try to look into such a study.--82.40.43.68 (talk) 03:29, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Chase was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, which is not remotely the same thing. A cursory search didn't find any such connection. IAmNitpicking (talk) 12:01, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
