Deviant religious beliefs and behavior are not generally labeled as mental disorders unless the deviance is a symptom of dysfunction. Thoughts of harming self or others, emotional distress, and a loss of interest in usual pleasurable activities and commitments are relevant and meet the generally accepted definition of a mental disorder.
