Carl Friedrich Flemming (December 27, 1799 – January 27 1880) was a German psychiatrist born in Jüterbog. He was the father of cellular biologist Walther Flemming (1843-1905). After receiving his medical doctorate from Berlin, he worked as an assistant at the ''Irrenheilanstalt Sonnenschein'' (Sonnenschein mental asylum) near Pirna. From 1830 to 1854 he was director of the new psychiatric hospital at Sachsenberg. From 1854 he maintained a private practice in Schwerin. In 1844 he introduced the term ''dysthymia mutabilis'' to describe a disorder that is an alternation of ''dysthymia atra'' (black depression) and ''dysthymia candida'' (low-level mania).〔(Bipolar II Disorder ) by Gordon Parker and Kerrie Eyers〕 He was part of the somatic school who held that insanity is a symptom of biological diseases located outside the brain, particularly diseases of the abdominal and thoracic viscera, akin to the delirium caused by many acute biological illnesses.〔 〕 Flemming died in Wiesbaden. == Written works == * ''De noctis circa morbos efficacia, etc''; (Berolini, Typis Ioannis Friderici Starckii 1821). * ''Die Menschenseele'', 1830 - The human soul. * ''Die Thierseele'', 1830 - The animal soul. * ''Die Irren-Heilanstalt Sachsenberg bei Schwerin im Großherzogthum Mecklenburg: Nachrichten über ihre Entstehung, Einrichtung, Verwaltung und bisherige Wirksamkeit'', 1833. * ''Pathologie und Therapie der Psychosen.
