Minor delusions are a type of psychotic disorder that is characterized by limited and repetitive ideation, which is a collection of strange and incongruous thoughts, feelings, or actions. This form of delusion is one of the most common mental pathologies among men aged 20 to 40 years.
Psychopathologists and psychiatrists argue that minor delusions may be the result of degenerative changes in the brain or a consequence of a nervous disorder. It is characterized by its instability: new elements can constantly arise, but the number of such ideas rarely exceeds a few. Their presence is expressed by repetitive behavior based on imagination and automatism, without control over one’s own actions and thoughts.
