paranoia

Posted by lostforwards on November 4, 2004, at 11:46:30

I know there's paranoid schizophrenia, and there's delusional thoughts that go along with manic states but what about delusional people who don't have bipolar or schizohphrenia.

There is a diagnosis for delusional personality disorder and apparently antipsychotics don't really help these people.

What's going on in there heads?
Is there some sort of warning beacon in the brain that keeps going off?

I don't understand how blocking one receptor with an AP could selectively destroy a delusional thought - unless the person did truly have a chemical imbalance ( too much dopamine ).

( PS: I think I was unwittingly given psychotherapy for paranoia by doctors and other mental health people. Earlier I posted about how they would try to make me paranoid. Like they would talk as if they were talking about me or hint at something they knew I might be thinking about but it was impossible to tell what they were actually talking about)
