Clinical lycanthropy

Did you know there is actually a psychiatric term called "clinical lycanthropy"? It is defined as a delusion where one believes to be another animal than human, and also can physically shapeshift to that animal. Heck, I learn something new every day! It's gotta be pretty rare though, to get that diagnose I mean. I've sure never heard of it before and I've been having my nose pretty deep in various psychological conditions for quite some time now. This one makes me giggle a little bit though. To me it seems harmless, but then I've never felt like I'm transforming into a werewolf.
