Abstract
Patients diagnosed with psychosis who are believers may use the symbols and rituals of their religion to give meaning to a psychotic experience. We present the case of a patient diagnosed with a psychotic disorder, with a predominance of delusional ideas of mystical-religious content, who in their first consultation with the psychiatrist demanded a medical report so that an exorcism could be conducted.
期刊介绍:
Es la Publicación Oficial de la Sociedad Española de Psiquiatría Biológica. Los recientes avances en el conocimiento de la bioquímica y de la fisiología cerebrales y el progreso en general en el campo de las neurociencias han abierto el camino al desarrollo de la psiquiatría biológica, fundada sobre bases anatomofisiológicas, más sólidas y científicas que la psiquiatría tradicional.
