The Doppelgänger, disintegration and death: a case report.

L H Maack, P E Mullen.   

Abstract

The phenomenon of a Doppelgänger (the double autoscopy heautoscopy) and its resolution in a psychotic patient is presented. A comparison is made between this experience and the phenomenon as it is described and defined in the literature. The themes of death and disintegration so commonly associated with the Doppelgänger in folklore and literature are highlighted by this patient's experience.
