Paranoid

The etiology of paranoid mental disorders may be heterogeneous, and the relative role of heredity, personality traits, and living environment in the onset of illness has not been determined. The clinical features are clear consciousness, the structure of delusions is more systematic, and the content of delusions varies greatly, with little or no hallucinations. Personality remains relatively intact, and although the condition is prolonged and even lasts for life, there is less mental decline. There are different views on the taxonomy of this group of diseases. Some people think that paranoid psychiatric disorder is a variant form of schizophrenia, and some people support it as an independent diagnosis.
