Hello. This is Director Kim Heon of Hyoohan Hospital Nowon Branch. Hyoohan Hospital Nowon Branch Homepage http://www.hyoonowon.com/ Hyoohan Hospital Nowon Branch Blog https://blog.naver.com/hanikim72 02-934-9690 Delusion is a pathologically formed wrong judgment or belief. The characteristics of delusion are very unique and unbelievable, very stubborn in opposing logic, and absolute conviction to the point of not blinking even in the face of clear evidence, as well as serious decline in function and sense of reality. When we say 'delusion disorder', it is a mental disorder that has systematic and not bizarre delusions, shows appropriate emotional reactions to the content of the delusions, but maintains the personality relatively well. Clinically, the types of delusional disorder commonly known are delusions of persecution and grandeur, and there are also delusions of jealousy, somatic delusions, and erotic delusions. When assessing the severity of delusional disorder or the prognosis of treatment, the degree of certainty of delusional beliefs is important. Therefore, it is important to determine the degree of delusional belief or obsession and whether there is any knowledge at all. The most important thing to be careful of when treating a delusional disorder patient is not to try to get rid of the patient's delusions unconditionally. If you try to get rid of them blindly, the patient will resist very strongly and the treatment itself will not proceed. More importantly, the moment the patient admits that the delusions they have believed in so strongly are wrong, the meaning of life they have lived and the driving force for living in the future may all collapse at once. In order to truly treat delusional disorder, it is more important to first understand why such delusions have arisen and what the meaning of such delusions is. I hope this was helpful. Thank you.
