Hello guys,

Did you know that the World Health Organization recognizes spiritual influence as a health condiction ?

On ICD 10, item F 44.3

"F44.3 Trance and possession disorders
Disorders in which there is a temporary loss of the sense of personal identity and full awareness of the surroundings. Include here only trance states that are involuntary or unwanted, occurring outside religious or culturally accepted situations.
Excludes: states associated with:
· acute and transient psychotic disorders ( F23.- )
· organic personality disorder ( F07.0 )
· postconcussional syndrome ( F07.2 )
· psychoactive substance intoxication ( F10-F19 with common fourth character .0)
· schizophrenia ( F20.- ) "

If you'd like to check for yourselves :

I got some more interesting info about this, so I'll get back to you very soon, ok ?

Regards.
