Psychiatrists Detail Harrowing Case of Internet-Induced Erotomania

YOU MEAN GLORIA FROM MODERN FAMILY ISN’T AVAILABLE? –

March 28, 2024 – Erotomania manifests as a persistent, delusional belief that an individual, typically of higher social status, is in love with the person experiencing the delusion, despite little to no interaction between the two. This syndrome has fascinated clinicians and scholars alike, with its roots traced back to the musings of Hippocrates and the detailed studies of French psychiatrist Gaëtan de Clérambault in the early 20th century.

The subject of this case study is a 70-year-old married woman from Hungary who fell victim to an online romance scam, leading her down a path of psychological turmoil and near tragedy. Her journey into this delusional state began innocently enough, with her expressing admiration for a musician’s work on social media. This admiration quickly escalated into an intense emotional involvement, fueled by fraudulent interactions with someone she believed to be the musician himself.
