Focal delusion refers to a specific type of delusion that is centered around a particular theme or idea, often related to a specific person, object, or situation. Unlike more generalized delusions, focal delusions can be highly detailed and may develop in response to particular experiences or beliefs. These delusions can occur in various psychiatric conditions, including schizophrenia and mood disorders, and they often influence the individual's perceptions and behaviors in a targeted manner. Treatment typically involves addressing the underlying mental health issues through therapy and medication.
Paranoid schizophrenia is when there is a presence of a delusion, a false belief, and possibly a hallucination that fuels that delusion. Types of delusion include delusional jealousy, erotomanic delusion, persecutory delusion, grandiose, and somatic delusion.
