Remission Delusional

Delusional remission

Delusional remission is a temporary (or chronic) loss of the psychotic state that the patient previously had. This can happen with any mental illness, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, dementia, etc. Remission can occur either spontaneously or under the influence of medication or psychological support.

One of the main reasons why people develop mental illness is due to heredity and environmental factors. People who have first-degree relatives with a mental illness during childhood or adolescence are more likely to develop the illness later in life.

Delusional remission, or residual delusional reaction, is one of the possible options for the development of post-infectious and intercurrent psychosis. It occurs somewhat less frequently than acute delusional symptoms. It develops 2 to 8 weeks after the disappearance of acute symptoms and lasts for several days to months. It most often develops after a history of mental illness, or with brain tumors. For example, from 1 to 15% of all endogenous psychoses. There are chronic protracted and chronic remissions. Chronic delayed remission is a restorative psychosis, which is characterized by the preservation of syndromes typical of the endogenous course: for example, neurosis-like and mnestic, a decrease in productive symptoms in comparison with the acute state, a decrease in the influence of somatogenic and exogenous factors. Patients with such neurotic manifestations usually do not have the typical forms of psychotic symptoms inherent in the vast majority of spontaneously occurring forms. Some isolated conditions (headaches, altered affect) or extended (unilateral or multiple) delusional or hallucinatory experiences may be observed, although the taxonomy of productive psychopathological symptoms cannot be definitively determined. Upon exception



RETEMISSION - subacute psychosis, in which the symptoms of the acute syndrome persist for a long time (months - years) and reach significant severity, but then everything quickly stops, and the person gradually returns to his previous life. This is a real remission: patients continue to work, do everyday activities, and sometimes worry
