He presents three cases from the Malaysian Buddhist community in which individuals displayed unusual behaviors, such as talking nonsense, making wild gestures, and hearing voices. All three cases were ultimately diagnosed with schizophrenia. Dr. Phang explains that psychosis is a brain condition with various causes, including psychiatric and medical conditions. He warns against misdiagnosis and the dangers of seeking help from traditional healers without medical oversight, as it can lead to physical abuse, unregulated treatments, and exploitation. He clarifies common misunderstandings, stating that hysteria and speaking in tongues are not psychosis, and seeing spirits doesn't automatically mean psychosis unless it impairs daily functioning. He emphasizes that meditation does not cause mental illness but can trigger a relapse in vulnerable individuals or worsen mental health if practiced improperly. Dr. Phang advises seeking medical help first for strange behavior and embracing a holistic approach that includes psycho-spiritual support alongside medical or psychiatric help. He concludes that while spiritual possibilities exist, psychosis is predominantly a common, treatable medical condition, and early medical intervention is critical.
