Talk:Ghost sickness

Somatization section
I've moved this section to talk as it appears to be off-topic here (likely belonging in another article). Please establish relevance to this article-- quotes from the sources, for example, if they specifically mention "ghost sickness". Otherwise, this section looks like WP:SYNTH.

Additional manifestations
Somatization is another manifestation of unresolved grief for Native Americans. Somatization, also known as Briquet's syndrome, is a chronic condition with numerous physical complaints most commonly involving the digestive system, nervous system, and chronic pain. Physicians are unable to find an underlying physical cause for the patient's symptoms, which can persist for years and be severe enough to interfere with employment and personal relationships.

Another possible manifestation of unresolved grief for Native Americans is the high rate of suicide amongst some tribes. This can be seen as an increase in self-destructive behaviors brought about by the inability to process grief through traditional rituals. High suicide rates can also be a manifestation of an obsession with the dead in which the sufferer may have an unconscious wish to join their deceased loved one.

"dizziness or fainting, and sometimes even loss of consciousness"
I don't understand this phrase -- fainting is loss of consciousness. Was it intended to say something else? ekips39 ❀talk  03:16, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
