A member asked:
Is munchausen syndrome curable?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, with difficulty: Munchaussen's syndrome is difficult to treat because, in most cases, the individual really does not want to get treatment. Once he/she does want treatment it can be treated with depth insight-oriented psychotherapy.
