I've been on the receiving end of
Folie à Deux/Folie à Famille and Dissociative
Identity Disorder/ MPD -  even more esoteric.
You couldn't make it up but its all
there in the psychiatric literature.
Researched , written up, and my file even cited
as authorative,
http://www.nutteing2.50megs.com/nutteing4.htm
or nutteing4 in a search engine.

Google usually gives you the answer (or at least, an answer) to everything.

>What Is AIWS?

An altered state of perception. Objects change size
and shape. The acronym is Alice In Wonderland
Syndrome as Lewis Carroll almost certainly experienced
it from his description of Alice shutting up and out like
a telescope is the main feature of AIWS.

He is known to have suffered badly from migraine which
is closely associated with AIWS.

No one is really sure the cause of it and finding a doctor
who knows anything about it is very rare. It usually appears
early on in childhood.

I just tried that, it only returned 42 hits though, and none of them
were much help

Thanks.
I shared a cabin with a guy who suffered from something quite similar.
One morning I found him sitting on the edge of his bunk looking at his
mug, he was as white as a sheet. Apparently he saw the mug as being
very small but over time it slowly grew to be enormous then went back
to its real size. Could take anything up to 20 minutes. He put it down
to long weeks at sea! He asked me not to mention it to the rest of the
mates. I didn't.

I hope you told him not to make a mountain out of a molehill.

A troll?  Just look at the list of newsgroups for a hint....  Unfortunately
this sad little poster is full of really poor ones at the moment.  He even
answers his own piss poor trolls.

Well I just looked this up, you have answered something that I have 
wondered about for years....when I was a child I used to have a 'dream' 
that one of my arms was so much longer than the rest of my body, really 
out of proportion, these 'dreams' would occur usually when I was feeling 
unwell.  I just thought it was a dream albeit a reccuring one.

Why do you ask?
