| The earliest recorded example of Cotard's syndrome dates back to 1880, when French neurologist Jules Cotard[(Jules_Cotard>Jules Cotard [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jules_Cotard|Wikipedia]])] first described the condition. He presented a case study of a patient he referred to as "Mademoiselle X." This female patient believed she had no brain, nerves, chest, or intestines and was, consequently, "eternally damned." She also thought she did not need to eat and could not die a natural death. Cotard referred to her delusion as "le délire de négation" or "negation delirium." | The earliest recorded example of Cotard's syndrome dates back to 1880, when French neurologist Jules Cotard[(Jules_Cotard>Jules Cotard [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jules_Cotard|Wikipedia]])] first described the condition.
