Delusion

A delusion is an untrue belief that cannot be changed through rational argumentation. In mental illness, delusions often manifest as false beliefs that:

  1. A person is being pursued by other people
  2. He has very great power
  3. His actions are constantly monitored by others
  4. He is a victim of physical illness (see Paranoia)

Delirium can be one of the symptoms of mental disorders such as:

  1. Schizophrenia
  2. Affective insanity
  3. Organic psychosis

In general, delusions indicate serious disturbances in the perception of reality. If there are persistent delusional ideas, a person needs to consult a psychiatrist to make a diagnosis and select adequate treatment.



Delusion: Study of the phenomenon and its connection with mental illness

Delusion is a psychopathological condition characterized by an untrue belief that cannot be changed through rational argumentation. This phenomenon often manifests itself in people suffering from various mental illnesses and can take different forms depending on the specific pathology.

One of the most common manifestations of delusion is paranoia, where a person mistakenly believes that other people are persecuting him or that there is a conspiracy against him. Beliefs in one's own greatness and power can also be characteristic of delusion. A person may believe that he has supernatural powers or has a special status that distinguishes him from other people.

Another form of delusion is the idea that one's actions are constantly being controlled by other people. The person believes that his thoughts and actions are manipulated and controlled by external forces or organizations. This belief can lead to severe anxiety and a feeling of loss of personal freedom.

Delusions can also be associated with ideas about one's own physical illness. A person mistakenly believes that he or she suffers from a certain disease, despite the lack of medical evidence or conflicting evidence. This can lead to excessive concern for one's health, avoidance of medical care, or, conversely, constant visits to doctors.

Delirium is one of the symptoms of various mental illnesses, including schizophrenia, manic-depressive psychosis and organic psychosis. Schizophrenia is characterized by the presence of prolonged or recurrent episodes of psychosis, including delusions. Manic-depressive psychosis, or bipolar affective disorder



Delusion is not true, a false belief; one of the forms of mental disorder when treating a person with medications and other mental disorders. Mental delirium can be both one of the signs of schizophrenia and a symptom, for example, of schizophrenia (manic-demonic psychosis); psychotic states caused by organic factors.

Delusions are modified hallucinations that reflect the affective experiences of patients about their imaginary phobias and fears of imaginary danger. Delusions differ from simpler disorders in that delusional patients may affect their appearance due to anxiety, depression, or mania, which may intensify to the point of confusion and create the impression that they are engaging in dangerous behavior. Delirium itself may include sudden acts of violence, inappropriate speech, strange behavior such as refusal to eat, food cravings, impulsive or emotionally driven behavior, and
