[QUOTE="witzend, post: 176576, member: 99"] I had a psychiatrist for a while who worked the emergency room rotation at Bellevue in NY during her internship. She said that oftentimes people who were schizo-affective came in with complaints about things implanted in their arm or head or belly, and she was very surprised when her mentor ordered an expensive test to find out what was physically wrong with the patient. She asked him why he had done that. He told her that many times, there really is something wrong with their head or their arm or their stomach, and they just don't have the ability to communicate that in a more "normal" way because in their mind, they see it as the "warriors" or aliens or whatever it is that they're obsessed about. Maybe there really is something that feels wrong in her head, and she's not able to communicate it more appropriately. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
