Shared Psychosis facts
While investigating facts about Shared Psychosis, I found out little known, but curios details like:
Ursula and Sabina Eriksson, two swedish twin sisters, had a "shared psychosis" and ran into oncoming traffic on a highway while on holliday in the UK.
Swedish twin sisters who without history of substance abuse or mental illness, suddenly developed a rare 'shared psychosis'; whereby they ran onto a busy motorway sustaining multiple injuries, and even one the sisters stabbing an innocent man to death after being released the next day.
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 6 of the best facts about Shared Psychosis I managed to collect.
