Dr. Ibrahim Magdy Hussein, a consultant psychiatrist, warned against the negative impact of the series “Al -Maddah” on some psychiatric patients, stressing that the dramatic work has strengthened some people convinced that they are enchanted or Melbosson, which led them to stop drug therapy and resort to charlatans or clerics in search of spiritual treatment.
Dr. Ibrahim said, in a post, that he noticed the increasing cases of patients who reject the medical diagnosis, and insist that their suffering is the result of magic or envy, noting that this conviction was present in advance, but it deepened more after watching the series.

He added: “When patients go to psychiatrists and tell them that they are enchanted or clothing, the response is often that they suffer from psychology or delusions and halaws, and they are asked to take drug therapy, and sometimes the response is harsh from some doctors in phrases such as sufficiency of ignorance and backwardness, which causes patients to refuse treatment and search for a sheikh or a priest instead.”
Dr. Ibrahim stressed the need to find a common language between psychiatrists and clerics, so that the patient does not feel ignorance or insult, adding: I am about myself. I tell the patients that it is okay to hear the Qur’an or evaporate the house, but at the same time it is necessary to adhere to drug therapy, and, God willing, their condition will improve.
