Question

The parent of a client who has a delusional disorder spends a great deal of time and energy trying to convince the client that the client is not actually the focus of a nationwide, secret plot to track the client's activities. Which of the client's responses is most typical of an individual with a delusional disorder?

Answer 1

You are so naive

Step-by-step explanation:

Delusional disorder usually begins in middle-aged or elderly people, and is less common than schizophrenia.

Delusional ideas may refer to situations that may occur in real life, such as being persecuted, poisoned, infected, secretly loved or compromised by the spouse or lover. Or situations may occur whose occurrence is very unlikely, as the person will have internal organs removed without scarring. The difference between a delirium and a false belief is that the person continues to believe in delirium even though all evidence clearly contradicts it.
