Other disorders cause I enjoy researching this shit:

Stendhal Syndrome: extreme anxiety and hallucination when exposed to a lot of aesthetically pleasing art, like a museum

Alien Hand Syndrome: due to damage to the corpus callosum, someone with this syndrome believes their hand has a will of its own and doesn't take responsibility to anything they do with said hand

Alice in Wonderland Syndrome (aka Todd's Syndrome): extreme distortion of reality and time. It can be linked to Schizophrenia or other reality distortion disorders. This main different is the distortion is usually linked to body proportions and shapes and can cause a panic response.

Cotard Delusion: Someone believes they've already died, which pulls them into a state of disregarding rules and a lack of anxiety

Lima Disorder: the opposite of Stockholm Syndrome where a captor become infatuated with their hostage (this isn't that cool I just didn't know this could happen)

Munchausen Syndrome: someone has an impulsive ability to exaggerate symptoms to get sympathy. This could go as far as to change medical records, self inflict pain to mimic symptoms or to lie extensively. The difference between this and a hypochondriac is that they are aware they are lying, which a hypochondriac believes they are actually sick

Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy: this is just like regular Munchausen except your impose this on someone else to get the same sympathy. The most famous is this girl named Gypsy who was stuck in a wheelchair for most of her life and couldn't talk but it turned out she was very healthy and her mom forced her to get sympathy from her friend and family.

Riley Day Syndrome: a person who's nerves don't allow them to feel any pain ever. Sounds great but this could lead to serious injuries like excessive burning and untreated wounds. It's really rare

Attachment Disorder: the inability to form long lasting relationships except for one. The person fixates on that one person because they believe they are soulmates/"the same person". Nothing special I just saw it while watching Arrow and thought I'd jot it down.
