He appreciates hearing about individuals' experiences with the phenomena discussed on this page, but cannot always respond. His email address is mdf@myself.com. I am a psychiatrist and author from Birmingham, Alabama. MUNCHAUSEN SYNDROME is the most severe and chronic form of my area of specialty, the FACTITIOUS DISORDERS. I am an expert in MALINGERING as well (in which people do the same thing, but for external gain such as narcotics). Factitious disorders are well-recognized among psychiatrists, but they have not received the attentionor advocacy among consumers, families, and professionalsthat have greeted more common ailments such as depression. However, factitious disorders can be every bit as disabling and further public and professional education are vital. People with factitious disorders feign, exaggerate, or actually self-induce illnesses. Their aim? To assume the status of "patient," and thereby to win attention, nurturance, and lenience that they feel unable to obtain in any other way. Unlike individuals who "malinger," people with factitious disorders are not primarily seeking external gains such as disability payments or narcotic drugsthough they may receive them nonetheless.

   Extractions: the discredited theory of M others A gainst M unchausen S yndrome b y P roxy A llegations "You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor." Exodus 20:16 M.A.M.A. was begun in response to the fast growing number of false allegations of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy (MSBP) . Parents are being accused of making their own children ill. Increasingly, families across America, Britain, Australia, Canada and New Zealand are being destroyed by doctors and other professionals who make false and even malicious allegations against desperate mothers of chronically/critically ill children. The inventor of this label/diagnosis, Sir Roy Meadow, has now been completely discredited in the UK courts and there is a tremendous public outcry for review of all cases in which he has ever been involved. (For more information see Published Articles ) We believe there should be a review of all cases world-wide in which MSP label has been used. The motives of the accusers can be multi-faceted. Often, allegations are used by a doctor or institution to evade a medical malpractice lawsuit , or to simply rid themselves of a troublesome mom when frustrated and unable to diagnose a child's condition. Increasingly, this label is being deliberately misused by opposing parents in child custody suits. Many nurses and even doctors have been accused.

4. Parenting: Parenthood Betrayed The Dilemma Of Munchausen Syndrome By Proxy
   A doctor explains how this disorder affects families. From SelfHelp magazine.  
   http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/articles/parenting/hsmun.html
   
   Extractions: THE DILEMMA OF MUNCHAUSEN SYNDROME BY PROXY Kathleen Bush and Yvonne Eldridge had a lot in common. First, both cared for children with remarkably complex medical problems: Jennifer Bush suffered from constant intestinal problems, and Eldridge's two foster daughters experienced a host of ailments that left them weak and emaciated. Second, both Bush and Eldridge spent most of their time escorting their sickly girls from doctor to doctor: Jennifer was eventually hospitalized 200 times, and all three children had to undergo surgery to place feeding tubes into their stomachs. And third, both parents received the highest praise for their exemplary devotion to their little charges: Bush was lauded by Hillary Clinton at a 1994 White House rally, while Eldridge was named national "Mother of the Year" in 1988 by Nancy Reagan. Yet prosecutors now maintain that Kathleen Bush and Yvonne Eldridge shared one more feature, a dark secret only recently exposed to the glare of television shows and newspapers around the world. Bush and Eldridge are accused of having a strange psychiatric ailment called "Munchausen syndrome by proxy" that led them to manufacture the girls' illnesses to meet their own needs for attention and sympathy. Bush is alleged to have deliberately poisoned and infected her daughter, Eldridge to have starved her foster children and reported symptoms that never really existed.
