How Long Can A Sudden Onset Of Delusions Last When There Hasn’t Been Any Previous Abnormal Behavior?
hello, first of all i’d like to thank you for your time that i really appreciate ... my brother is 21 yrs old suffers from a sudden onset of delusions without any previous abnormal behavior... MRI was free..I wanted to know for how long delusions will continue and if he will return completely normal or not ??
The treatment of delusional disorder depends on its context and severity. If it is depressive or somatic delusion then treatment is for a shorter period and if it's any other cause like paranoia or infidelity, then treatment may take longer.
