Alice in wonderland syndrom 

Alice in wonderland syndrome (AIWS/AWS), also called Todd syndrome is a neurological and harmless syndrome where someone’s surroundings are distorted and people and/or objects might be hallucinated smaller (micropsia), bigger (macropsia), further away (teleopsia) or closer (pelopsia). These episodes usually last 10-20 minutes and can be triggered by migraines, nervousness, specific lighting and fevers. Side symptoms during an episode (can) include dizzyness, sensory hallucinations, body dysmorphia in limbs, difficulty to focus and relax your eyes and losing sense of time. Alice in wonderland is not easily diagnosed due to the fact many cases happen to be in children, who are usually too afraid to tell a parent/adult or arent understood when describing their hallucinations. Most children grow out of their Alice in wonderland syndrome at the end of their childhood.
“Did you ever see objects in your room shrink for a while when you were a kid?”
“Yes, it is called Alice in wonderland syndrome”
“Oh, how come its called that?”
“Because it refers to Alice’s body shrinking and growing abnormally in the story, but another name for the condition is Todd syndrome”
“And why’s that?”
“Because someone named Todd was the first person to elaborate his experience with the syndrome.”

I attended a business meeting where management and my teammates decided to blatantly lie and mislead our customers. I was the only one who had a problem with this. When I spoke up, I was told to stop making trouble and to start being a team player. I fell into Alice in Wonderland Syndrome.
