Outbreaks of mass psychogenic illness show us the powerful effect of stress and other people on the way we feel. Your body can have a similar strong reaction to the stressful situations involved in mass psychogenic illness. These outbreaks happen to normal, healthy people. Just because you reacted this way to a mass illness does not mean there is something wrong with your mind. Doctors can't find anything wrong with the group's classroom or office, like some kind of poison in the air.
Many people get sick.
Most of these outbreaks stop when people get away from the place where the illness started. The illness tends to go away once people are examined and doctors tell them that they do not have a dangerous illness. Keeping the people who feel sick away from all the commotion and stress is important. After experts check out the place where the outbreak started, they can reassure people that it is safe to go back to that place. You have a fever.
