Abstract
Attempted suicide by CO poisoning resulted in extensive mental deterioration in a bright young man (estimated previous I.Q., 125). Nine years later he had a Wechsler I.Q. of 76, with symptoms simulating schizophrenia. The degeneration seems to have relieved his hostility and emotional disturbance. Through careful rehabilitation he has gained simple orientation and capacity for manual labor. There is need for research on the effects of less severe CO poisoning.
