Feigned alcohol abuse. A unique case report
1Department of Psychological Medicine, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand.
Abstract:
A man presenting with factitious alcohol abuse and its alleged complications is described. It is argued that chronic factitious disorders are more logically viewed as part of that spectrum of conditions where there is abnormal illness behaviour, including somatoform disorders and other related conditions, than as separate nosological or diagnostic entities.
