I did the edit on 24 Feb 2006, but forgot to login first. Most of the new material is abstracted from the article "UNDERSTANDING TAIJIN KYOFUSHO THROUGH ITS TREATMENT, MORITA THERAPY", cited in the article. What I _didn't_ mention was that this condition was largely identified and defined by Dr Morita. If I find the time I'll add that. Some of this should also be bled through to the Morita entry.

message: The Evpatoria Report!
: Yes, them! The Evpatoria Report is a Swiss band that has a song apparently named after this disorder. Would someone please verify this and add it to this article and/or the band's? Sorry I can only ask and not do it myself, but my chronic illness is very active lately and I have to be careful.

message: I saw this had a tag to be copy-edited for spaces after punctuation. Well, that wasn't a significant problem, but the English wasn't great throughout the article.
Someone needs to take a big look through the article, and re-organise it, because there are sentences that don't entirely make sense to me or seem to be placed logically. It seems like it was half-finished years ago and never updated since - adding a mention of a Swiss post-rock band is the least of concerns.  I'm kind of new so I don't really know what to tag it with. It needs someone with more technical understanding to look at it (I thought I was just going to remove double-spaces).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Conradteixeira (talk • contribs) 22:45, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Not a culture-bound syndrome 

message: , I feel some of the content you have deleted should have stayed, specifically, the prevalence statistics and the mention of East-West cultural differences. Another source (on olfactory reference syndrome, and some of these ) also mentioned this I believe, and it is these cultural differences which are key to the arguments about whether Taijin kyofusho (East) is the same as olfactory reference syndrome (West). 92.40.83.249 (talk) 17:28, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

message: The statement that culture-bound syndromes "are resistant to western style medicine" is non-neutral, being specifically pejorative towards evidence basis in treatment, implying that somehow magical means are necessary in "the rest of the world", even if science (e.g. "Western-style medicine") works "in the West". This is patently ridiculous, so I'm tagging the section NPOV. Sehr Gut (talk) 20:36, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
