stays with her paternal family, she had frequent out bursts and fights
with her cousins. In 2015, it was a normal day but at night same
incident with her cousins occurred after which the patient
complaints that she feels a very heavy thing on her heart,
restlessness and started to shout on everyone in the family. She
became unconscious for 3 to 5 minutes, secrete saliva and pass urine
at that time afterwards, she regains her consciousness. She was
taken to various faith healers as the patient says that evil eye has our

bad mood and then picks fight with everyone over small things starts
to shout on everyone, she usually goes out with her friends and after

entire day she would get irritated and tell not to interfere In her life.
She talks to herself and gets happy and something would cry, she
was taken to psychiatrist on recommendation of a faith healer. She
was prescribed some medication the record of which were not
available. The patient wanders from one room to another, cannot
stay at one place stand up, sit down which had got worse to the
extent that she runs from home at night saying that some feminine
voice is calling her from outside. From last one year her sleep had
reduced to only three hours. Day gets up frequently when in sleep
and tries to wander away from home.
On one occasion she gets up in the middle of the night and went out
to the neighbours whom started to knock the door. She was brought
back into the house by her family members. On asking why she went
there she said that “mujhe koyi bhula raha tha suhaib ke ghar” on
one occasion in the evening she got up and went to the window side
and started shouting that her cousin brother is calling her and telling
her to follow him to “misr” but there were no one to be found
outside after few days she suddenly got up from sleep and would say
“misr ki ziyarat pe mujhe jana hai” and move outside of the house.
Her brother stopped her from going outside because of which she
got angry and started beating her brother weeping and yelling that
the family members don’t wish her good. Earlier she would wash
herself on frequent instances, groom herself was addicted to
makeup, self-medicate herself for weight gain. But now she had loss
all her interest now her mother forces her to take bath she stays
without washing her face, nails untrimmed dirty clothes for a weeks,
she was not able to wash herself her mother would bath her which
was contrary to her earlier behaviour. She is not responsible towards
any of her duties earlier she would help her mother in household
chores but now she don’t even care. She would suspect that her
family members are against her, they are planning something which
is not in her favour. At times when family members were talking she
becomes suspicious and starts abusing. Since last one year, her
symptoms have increased in severity her suspiciousness has
increased she thinks that her family members are casting black magic
on her whenever her father advise her for something she engaged in
a violent fight with him and accused him of having evil intentions
against her. She avoids interaction with her family saying that she is
alone and everyone in the family is against her she would not eat
anything provided by her family members saying that they have
mixed something in it. On some occasions she would go in the
kitchen tries to prepare food for herself but would not be able to do.
So, as she don’t know the proper procedure when hungry she go and
takeout food by herself and sit separate and eat and mutter to
herself. She treats her family members of suicide if they interfere in
her life. Patient was in a relationship for three years. During which
she would go and visit him in parks. Her relationship ended because
her partner doubt that she will cheat him as he saw such things in
her, she had lots of male friends and loved making friends in social
media. But now, she even don’t like the starring of a man towards
