In 1992 I was forced to face the fact that I have this delusional disorder I am infected with the AIDS Virus that there are sores all over my body per a parent and her head doctor in Brevard County, florida shes sure I have these sores all over me I have to face it and was locked up in a mental institution for weeks try 12 years being put away for life her family took turns with my social and body with AIDS> I am highly delusional about the sores on my legs and arms and in my genitilia per a psychopath who locked my body down assaulted me in 1992 so did cops the AIDS just all over me in my butt too probablyburns and blisters from the assault. She saw my AIDS iin the newspaper here shes sure of it. Not know they did something wrong here unaware done wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am delusional about the AIDS Virus all over my face also and on my feet all over me even today.

WOW!! Where was this forum when I needed it like 3 years ago?
My ex was diagnised with DD ( paranoid type) and possibly PPD and possibly Depression and possibly Schizoaffective disorder and I could go on! I know all about Risperdal, Zoloft, Paxil, Wellbutrin, Deseryl, etc., etc--they did NO good!

My life was very much like the other spouses have described...a living hell. He's still not well and refuses to be treated ( no meds no counseling though he'd been involuntarily hospitalized 3 times before we divorced--and he initiated it ( the divorce) !!!--THE nerve after I delt with his crap for years...but I digress) and still lives his life as if the government and every other person or persons is out to get him. He accused me of attempetd murder ( of him--of course) and of every heinous crime he could think of. He's a known commodity to the local State Police and they ignore his complaints anymore. He bugged our home with surveilance devices and claims to have all kinds of evidence, that was conveniently stolen, of me trying to kill him as well as other, unknown people, that I was in conspircay with, trying to kill him as he has these very important "secrets" "they want". He made false claims to the homeowners insurnace for $30,0000 claiming all of his "important papers and documents were stolen" and that all of his "clothes were contaminated". They dropped the insurance gee I wonder whY???? UUGGHH!!!!

So...I'm thrilled to see that others have lived my hell ( sorry misery loves company)...and saddened all at the same time. I found the mental health, so called, professionals in my area to have been less than helpful. They couldn't deal with him!! He was and is too smart for them!!! My marriage was destroyed...a good man lives like a fugitive for no reasons and I have been forced into a forclosue of a house all due to this God-awful illness that NO ONE can seem to cure or at least control!

I ended up re-married to a great man and have a relatively normal life now. Though, unfortunately, I have to have contact with my ex due to financial reasons ( he messed up his and my finances so bad, that was also and still continues to be, a major problem but will, hopefully end soon). He's often jobless and has no clue as to handle his money...it is very sad. His family washed their hands of him and they still contact me for "help" with him on an occasional basis. I refuse now that I am re-married ( and he doesn't know it and neither do any of his family and I intend to keep it that way for as long as I can).

I just wish there was more hope for people like this but I guess there isn't. Our medical professionNEEDS to do more so that these awful stories don't have to be told and shared any more.

I wish all folks in this forum luck.

And as I said when I started, where was this 3 years ago???

Hi, Are you aware that this forum displays ads of the "find out if your partner is cheating " variety? My wife, who has DD spent alot of money thru these sort of sites, including "151 ways to know he is cheating", all of which feed this delusional mindset.

I am glad I just came to this forum because I have been diagnosed with d/do persecutory type after coming back from Iraq. Well I will tell you this This illness is a pain. Before I was in Iraq I was good no delusions or anything, just a normal soldier doing a job. well when I came back I was very controlling very jealous and all kinds of other crazy crap. Well I met my now fiance who has stuck by me the whole time and without her I would have been lost. Well it has been a whole year and a half since I have been diagnosed and since then I have wanted to get better and better. With these guys you have to make them think that what they think is not true. Its a pain I know but they also have to be willing to give up their delusion. To be honest the medication was worse then the illness itself so don't always count on that either.

Well let me tell you something if you have an extremely jealous person and they are afraid of you having sex with somebody or cheating on you then tell them go do it themselves if they are so scared of you cheating on them tell them to find out why other women would cheat and have them cheat on you. So they know about it. Its a fear of unknown to these people they don't know about it and they themselves are very loyal and very rightous per say. Tell them that its o.k. to feel a little bit jealous but don't get out of hand. The Truth is they love you a lot and they truly care about you more then you will ever know. They just don't know about cheating and are afraid to be lied to. they have to be insightful and willing to talk to other people like mental health professionals and even research their illness. Inform them on whats out there. BUT DON'T FORCE IT ON THEM, if you know anybody that has these symptoms and would like to talk to me just send me an email at

pvtromeroarmyapg@yahoo.com

and put something about delusional disorder on it and I would be willing to write or call if you want.

Just wondering how i can delete a post? I wanted to get my family onto this site because it affects them too but I dont want them to be upset about something I wrote as it's personal.

Lee, you can edit your posts, including deleting the whole text if you want to. Just go to the post you want to edit/delete and press the edit button on the top right I think.

Hope that helps.

Yep, there are 2 buttons at the top of each post you make "quote" and "edit" ....
