A clinical case of alteration of behaviour is the unit of analysis. The cultural aspects play a major role in physical and mental health and in this case the subject was part of a family where mediunity was seen as a common gift. Even though, she looked for medical help after her mother-in-law had spoken by her mouth. This patient was also exposed to high dosages of corticoids for the treatment of Alopecia Areata (AA). Mental disorders induced by corticoids are well documented, in a variety of symptoms. When observed, this patient also met criteria for Dysthymic Disorder and the episode testified by her family could suggest a narrowing of the field of consciousness in a dissociative experience. The author raises some etiological hypothesis and presents a 2 years follow-up of the case and patient-doctor relationship.
