Comprehending Delusion

Obulesu Mathu

A delusion is a fixed conviction that in the light of contradictory facts, is not likely to change. As a disease, it varies from a belief based on inaccurate or unreliable knowledge, confabulation, dogma, delusion, or any other deceptive perception impact. Delusions are described as fixed, untrue beliefs that contrast with reality. An individual in a delusional state can’t let go of their beliefs, despite contrary evidence.
