Comprehending Dilusion

Obulesu M

A delusion is a fixed conviction that in the light of contradictory facts, is not likely to change. As a disease, it varies from a belief based on inaccurate or unreliable knowledge, confabulation, dogma, delusion, or any other deceptive perceptional impact. In several pathological states, delusions have been shown to occur (both general physical and mental) and are of particular diagnostic significance in psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia, paraphrenia, bipolar disorder depressive episodes, and psychotic depression.
