Wahneinfall
Wahneinfall is alternate term for autochthonous delusions or delusional intuition.
Primary delusional disorder[edit | edit source]
This is one of the types of primary delusions in which a firm belief comes into the individual's mind 'out of the blue' or as an intuition, hence called delusional intuition.
Other delusional disorder[edit | edit source]
Other types of primary delusions include delusional mood (or atmosphere), delusional (apophanous) perception and delusional memories.
Care must be taken not to impugn an otherwise-rational individual's instinctive aversion or inexpressible sense of or belief about a thing by dismissing it as Wahneinfall.
