What is the disease called pika?

I know that pica is caused by some sort of mineral deficiency in a persons body and its usually the lack of iron. Often the substance eaten by someone with pica contains the mineral in which that individual is deficient. Mental health conditions, such as OCD and schizophrenia sometimes cause pica. It has also been mentioned that maybe stress that is associated with traumatic events can lead to pica disorder. The traumatic events I'm referring to is parental separation, child abuse, or maternal deprivation.
