Let's talk about Delusional Disorder. What it is and how it affects people.
Delusional Disorder is often overlooked and deeply misunderstood—even within mental health conversations. In this episode, we shed light on this rare condition and the lived experience behind the diagnosis.
We dive into: 🧠 What Delusional Disorder really is 💬 The types of delusions and how they show up in everyday life 🔍 The challenges in diagnosis and treatment 🛠️ Living with the condition and navigating reality ❤️ Why empathy and understanding matter more than ever
This episode is about more than clinical definitions—it’s about real people, real stories, and the courage it takes to face a misunderstood mind.
