Catalepsy
The word catalepsy comes from the Greek " Katalêpsis" (which means “action to seize” or “attacks”) but also medieval Latin “captalepsis”. The catalepsy describes the complete suspension of the voluntary movement of the Muscle S in the position where they are positioned. The attitude which emerges some is that of a statue or a MIME preserving a position solidified in full action. This psychiatric symptom finds in Maladie S the such Schizophrénie, or in certain hypnotic states . A patient in such a state can remain hours in the same position; if one manages to change this position (for example: to raise his arm), then the patient will remain in this position (while a healthy individual is unable to remain in the same position so lengthily), thus giving the impression to be last with the state of corpse.
