I read this in a Swedish newspaper:
Simon, a young man from Sweden had been suffering from psychosis since a young age, having a voice in his head that grew more and more agressive as the years passed by.
Medical treatment failed to make the symptoms go away, and one day the young man attended church service and the priest prayed for him.
When Simon went home after the service, the voice had vanished, and the last thing the voice said was this:
"I can not stand to be here anymore", which indicates that some cases of psychosis may be demonic in nature.
At the University of Lund in Sweden the psychiatrists there have shown great interest in Simon's case and they have been scanning his brain activity which shows normal brain activity compared from before Simon attended the church service.
This is a very convincing story where everything adds up.
Simon is a real person that has a channel on YouTube. His name, age, location and occupation is the same as in the newspaper article, so there is no doubt that this person exists in real life.
Most testimonies of this sort can not be verified at all, but this one can.
Simon's medical records are there as well as test results from the University of Lund, the church and the priest do exist, so the non-belivers would be hard pressed to refute this one.
-All glory to God.
 
Edit:
I've been working for many years as a therapist in a psyciatric clinic here in Norway, and let me add some thoughts about this case.
Mental disorders that involves psychosis tend to follow a certain developing pattern.
Symptoms usually appear during puberty but can in some cases be found in younger patients.
50% of patients suffer an increase in symptoms which become stable at some stage in adulthood. in other words;-neither increasing nor decreasing.
25% suffer an on going increase in symptoms throughout their entire life.
The remaining 25% develop increasing symptoms up to some stage of adulthood, and after that the symptoms slowly dies out.
The young swedish man in this case does not fit in any of the development cases above.
It is unheard of that symptoms should suddenly disappear over night, and this might be what makes the experts at Lund University scratch their heads.
Also, the patient is 26 years old and should not statistically be subject to have his symptoms vanishing.
They therefore state that they can not find any medical or scientific reason for the abrupt disappearance of symptoms in this case.
Psychosis also damages the brain, which can be seen from scanning, but in this case the university states that the young man has a normal brain function. I interpret this that they have not found signs of brain damage which would be very odd indeed.
It seems like God has restored and repaired his brain.
