Delusion Disorder

In this video Darren Magee outlines delusion disorder, a mental illness previously known as paranoid disorder. Though sometimes delusions may be symptoms of another mental health illness such as schizophrenia, Delusion disorder is both distinct and quite rare. It is a disorder where someone finds it difficult to distinguish between fact and what is imagined, and someone with this disorder can experience paranoia.

Common delusions include:

Persecutory delusions - the belief that there is injustice of some kind, someone may believe there are conspiracies against them.

Grandiose, or megalomania - the belief that someone is very special, an over inflated sense of importance or power.

Jealousy - the belief that their partner is cheating on them.

Somatic - the belief that someone is very ill
