Jules Cotard
(19th century,
French neurologist)
He was the first one who
got to contact with this
illness. One of his female
patients (Mademoiselle X)
claimed that all of her in-
ternal organs were missing
and that she didn‘ t need
to eat. She was convinced
that she has been cursed
and she can’t die with nat-
ural death.
