Individuals with chronic mental illnesses suffer in a variety of ways in our society. Some of this is due to a pervasive misunderstanding of what it means to be mentally ill in our culture, and how these illnesses are treated. Many very productive, creative people suffer from chronic mental illness, which if untreated, can have serious consequences for individuals and their families. For most, if not all, people who suffer from these illnesses, it is necessary to take psychotropic medications. However, many individuals and their family members are left feeling confused, frustrated, and frightened by their own, or their loved -one's diagnosis. In these cases supportive counseling can make the difference between success and failure in treatment. As a psychiatric social worker and psychothera Read More

Delusional (Paranoid) Disorders What Are Delusional (Paranoid) Disorders? Delusional Disorders are a form of Psychosis in which a person has paranoid delusion(s) which are often long-lasting, and do not have an obvious physical/medical cause (e.g. head injuries ). Occasionally, in older people, they may be accompanied by the person hearing noises, sounds, other people talking, which don't exist (called auditory hallucinations ). What are Paranoid Delusions? Delusions are beliefs that are not backed up by reality. They may remain despite obvious evidence to the contrary, and the fact that nobody else believes them to be true. Paranoid Delusions are beliefs of a suspiscious nature, where the person believes something is not right with them, another person(s), or the world in general, which p Read More

These irrational beliefs defy normal reasoning, and remain firm even when overwhelming proof is presented to dispute them.

Charles Balis' Journal for the Week ending 10/23/98 Saturday, October 17, 1998 Sunday, October 18, 1998 Monday, October 19, 1998 3 pm. Third Session with Darius Booth. I'm beginning to believe that Darius' obsession with Doug Arable is not as harmless as it may appear. This is a pattern with Darius: to latch onto some other employee and then to view all their actions as infinitely subtle putdowns or misdeeds aimed at him. Unfortunately, Darius seems capable of seeking a real revenge, he described one although it was so subtle itself that I'm sure that the victim wasn't even aware of it. I believe that I'm ready to make a tentative diagnosis: Darius is suffering from delusional disorder with persecutory features. His delusion is well-systematized, nonbizarre, and accompanied by affect appro Read More

B. Paranoia, Delusions, Hallucinations Paranoia and suspiciousness can occur in several different types of disorders: Schizophrenia and Delusional Disorders Early-onset schizophrenics who were previously deinstitutionalized may be living in nursing homes as they reach advanced age, particularly with concomitant medical and physical problems. Others may be encountered in group homes or board and care facilities. Research suggests that for many of these chronically ill schizophrenics, their symptoms become more mild in later life. Late-onset schizophrenia is uncommon. Delusional Disorder: suspicious thoughts and delusions with paranoid content, but occurring without other features such as disturbed role functioning, abnormal sense of self, and thought disorder. The delusions are nonbizarre, Read More

Healthinmind / Mental Health Disorders / Psychoses Delusional Disorder Delusions that persist for at least 1 month, in the absence of other symptoms, are the hallmark of delusional disorder. The person must not have other prominent symptoms of schizophrenia, and there must be no obvious hallucinations or odd behaviors. Delusional disorder does not always produce significant inability to function socially or vocationally. Some common types of delusions, with examples of each, are: that some important person is in love with the person (erotomanic delusional disorder), or that the person is being poisoned or followed or infected (persecutory type), or that the person's sexual partner is being unfaithful (jealous type), or that the person has made a wonderful invention or is critical to the we Read More

The copy machine repairman drew a devil with a pitchfork, "smiling and watching all the bad people do bad things," said Dr. Marvin Acklin, who diagnosed Uyesugi with a delusional disorder after he was admitted to Castle Hospital that year. When asked what the devil was thinking, Uyesugi responded: "It's just like your conscience: 'Do it. Get even with that suck-up. He did you wrong. Get him.'

Karen Franklin, Ph.D. Selected Topics: Delusions in the Forensic Context Back to Home Delusions are an interesting philosophical topic, because whether a particular belief is deemed delusional often depends upon the perspective of the person or cultural group doing the evaluating. The tendency of mental health practitioners to disbelieve patients has been facetiously dubbed "the Martha Mitchell effect," after the U.S. attorney general's wife whose bizarre-sounding accounts of illegal activity in the Nixon White House were initially dismissed as evidence of delusional thinking. The DSM-IV defines delusions as "erroneous beliefs that usually involve a misinterpretation of perceptions or experiences." Delusions may be bizarre, that is, "clearly implausible, not understandable, and not derived Read More
