News of Delusional Disorder Forum

Hi.
Thanks for all the hopeful and realistic posts. What a great discovery this forum has been for me this week.

My sister has been DD for 7-9 years or so and refuses treatment/meds. She fled her family but calls her young teens and tells them the apocalyptic details of her religious calling (due any day now) where she will be prophet of religious group, bring peace to the middle east, as soon as this ...

I was relieved to find this forum & find that there is actually a name for the symptoms my Mom has been exhibiting over the years. Living with a mother who has DD is a roller coaster rider and very painful. Here is my story. Apologies in advance if I am rambling. I am feeling very desperate and we had another incident today and I really need to vent. It's hard emotionally on me because ...

Hi! I have tried posting a couple of times since I found this web site but I don't see them anywhere so if I'm repeating somehow I am sorry. This site has both scared me and been a relief. My husband was forcibly hospitalized and diagnosed with a stress induced delusion about 5 months ago. He was briefly on medication but didn't like the way it made him feel and he doesn't believe that he ...

Hello.
I am new to the forum and so happy that such a place exists. My husband has DD and we have been struggling with it for almost 2 years. He has delusions of persecution and grandeur. I love him very much and do not plan to leave, but I am having a very difficult time coping. I have been plagued with horrible tension headaches and migraines, which are caused by stress according to neurologists ...

We have a neighbor who screams obscenities to himself alone in his house, and who recently freaked out and accused another neighbor of beating on his door in the middle of the night, stealing his mail, and pushing him. He became beligerent and extremely verbally aggressive, but with no reason because the accused neighbor was asleep with his fiancee at the time. He now thinks I'm involved and called me names because I tried to ...

my boyfriend and I suffered from shared psychotic disorder about a year and a half ago. We are trying to patch up our relationship because he feels betrayed that I "made him crazy." My mother has schitzophrenia. I know that now that we have come back to reality by ourselves, it proves there is hope for me and for him. He also feels that I made the relationship unsafe. I understand, but at the time, ...

I have recently been diagnosed with delusional disorder. I am a mixed type, as my delusional theme classifies me as erotomanic, paranoid, grandiose, and as possessing referential beliefs. I was sent to a psychiatrist after going to a counselor venting my "relationship problems" with a man I thought was following me and who was "out to get me". Since then I have been taking Risperidal as treatment, and it has been helpful in lessening my ...

Hello everyone,
I am still here trying to discover some more things about me.
One of the things that has been bothering me lately is this...
About 6 months ago, I noticed my hubby had been looking on friends reunited, searching for a girls name. At the time , my heart felt like it had stopped and my brain went into a panic I presume. Anyway as I sat there contemplating, I thought that perhaps ...

In my other post, I mentioned that I have a delusion in which I believe that my neighbors are breaking into my apartment when I'm away. My door (the only way into my apartment since I doubt anyone could break in through my patio door) has one of those brass door knobs that you can buy at Home Depot with a deadbolt lock. I also have separate deadbolt above the door knob which uses the ...
