Other acute predominantly delusional psychotic disorders are characterized by a sudden onset of delusions and other psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations, disorganized speech, disorganized behavior, and/or negative symptoms (e.g. apathy, flat affect, etc.). these disorders are distinguished from other psychotic disorders by the predominance of delusional symptoms and the absence of a clear affective component.

Other acute predominantly delusional psychotic disorders involve a sudden onset of symptoms where the individual experiences a distorted reality and has false beliefs (delusions) that are not based in fact. this can include paranoia, grandiose beliefs, and other psychotic symptoms, such as hallucinations. these symptoms are thought to be caused by an imbalance in neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine and serotonin, which can be triggered by a variety of factors such as extreme stress, substance abuse, or a medical condition. treatment often involves a combination of medication, psychotherapy, and lifestyle changes.
