Abstract
Background: This case is interesting because her psychosis was exacerbated at the same time as her new pregnancy onset, and the patient had multiple gestational records. Furthermore, her psychosis was treatment-resistant to Aripiprazole. Case Report: A 36 year-old woman with a gestational age of 27 weeks presented to the Behavioral Health Unit due to acute psychosis of carrying the “Devil’s child.” Conclusion: We hope this case report can serve as a basis for establishing management guidelines for patients with peripartum acute psychosis.
