Obsessive compulsive symptoms? Now let me tell you something.

Obsessive compulsive symptoms?

Relationship delusion: the patient thinks that the things that have nothing to do with him are related to him. For example, the patient thinks that the TV is about him and his family, so he turns off the TV. He thought that the content in the newspaper was a reflection of him and his family, so he angrily put the newspaper aside. He refused to go out because he thought the conversation between strangers on the road was talking about him, coughing and spitting was aimed at him and despised him.

Delusion of victimization: the patient firmly believes that people around him or some gangs track, monitor, attack, frame him, and even poison his food and drinking water. Under the control of arrogance, there are behaviors such as restricting food, accusing, escaping, injuring people and self injuring. More common in schizophrenia and paranoid psychosis.

Delusion of self sin: also known as delusion of sin. Patients have no basis to think that they have committed serious mistakes and crimes, and even that they have committed heinous crimes and deserve to be punished, so that they refuse to eat or require labor reform in order to atone.

matters needing attention

We must pay attention not to stabilize the patient's mood and cater to the patient's delusion. In order to stabilize the patient's mood, some people admit their persecution to the patient and admit their mistakes, which will not help to improve the patient's condition, and aggravate and consolidate the patient's delusion, encourage the patients with schizophrenia to participate in various recreational activities and distract their attention.
