I remember once thinking that I might have Clinical Lycanthropy when I first read about it somewhere, with persistent thoughts of change and that I was a Dog instead. The article was all about people thinking they were animals and acting like them, and being in asylums, idolizing the moon and wolf lore, and one guy who had boanthropy, being like a grazing animal, down on his hands and knees, eating grass on the grounds of the institution.
I realized it probably didn't apply to me, since all of the incidents seemed to be from a century ago, so it didn't seem like there was any lycanthropy today. I didn't know about Cynanthropy at the time though, for domestic Dogs, that might have changed things.. :)
I read that a long time ago, and thinking back, it was probably a book review, and it would be interesting to find that book now.
