A madness shared by two

"Folie à deux is a psychiatric disorder sometimes offered as an explanation for why some women might commit horrific murders in the company of their lover or husband. In the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) it is called "Shared Psychotic Disorder." It is induced by a stronger personality upon a weaker on (the folie imposée), but delusions can also occur simultaneously in associated predisposed individuals (folie simultanée)."
