The syndrome of Alice in Wonderland

The syndrome of Alice in Wonderland

The syndrome of Alice in Wonderland is a neurological disorder that usually occurs in children, usually at night and describes a set of symptoms where visual perception and body image is altered, incorrectly perceiving the size of body parts and external objects, causing disorientation and distortion of the senses.

Normally this syndrome is diagnnosticado in childhood, where the child can feel like the character in the story, a little lost in their dreams; although typically many people no longer feel the symptoms in adolescence, few are felt throughout life, especially at the onset of sleep.
