Magical thinking 痴心妄想
    2020-04-28  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

A: Is Mary better now?

B: Not really. Experimenting with all types of herbal treatment, she still refuses to see a doctor.

A: She needs to stop that magical thinking of curing herself and go to seek help from medical professionals.

Note: Magical thinking refers to the erroneous belief, similar to a normal stage of childhood development that thoughts assume a magical power capable of influencing events without a physical action actually occurring. It’s a conviction that thinking equates with doing, accompanied by an unrealistic understanding of cause and effect. Magical thinking also occurs in schizophrenia.
