Persecutory Delusion

By Craig Childress, PsyD

Let me provide you with a little language option when discussing the persecutory delusion with other people – you can also refer to it as a “thought disorder” – as a “distortion to how the person perceives and interprets situations.”

The persecutory delusion is the label – the thought disorder is the description of what it is – a distortion to the way the person perceives and interprets situations – a thought disorder.

It’s caused by unresolved trauma. The unresolved trauma distorts how the person perceives and interprets situations.

They perceive threat where no threat exists – that’s the persecutory delusion – the belief that other people are motivated by a malevolent intent – a “wish to do evil” to them, or to the child.

The unresolved trauma distorts their perceptions and interpretations. When the distortion is severe, it’s called a thought disorder. This specific type of thought disorder is called a persecutory delusion.

The parent’s distorted perceptions are being imposed on the child, creating a shared delusional belief – a shared thought disorder – in supposed “victimization” by a “malevolent” parent.

That’s not true. The targeted parent loves their child. They’re not a malevolent threat to the child – that’s crazy. It’s called a thought disorder.

It has its origins in the unresolved childhood trauma of the parent. It is then being imposed on the child through aberrant and distorted parenting practices (called pathogenic parenting – producing pathology in the child).

It’s also called “the transference” – i.e., the transfer of childhood attachment patterns to current relationships.

Bing: define supernovae

Divine often refers to SuperNova,

as applies to humans , and I am so

blown away to be aware of so many

and so many more that are rising to

their joy , creation potential in total

surrender to love , a return to ❤🐸✌♾☯️

Thus surrendering all to Divine , I work

and play and pray all day with time

outs for hit baths , fun music, preparing

delicious meals, and soundly sleeping .

I dont feel any lacks , and am centered on

clearing ..as I write this a gusher

downpour hit with no warning 🎊💤🎯🔮

I am seizing each moment , as a writer

a poet longing for conclusions that I

might better apply my thoughts to

express more facets of me .

Not all is or should be stated , what my

soul has captured , is full spectrum

and as always is centered on being

Blessed Guardians of Mother Earth

and her peoples and health that is wealth

ending disparities including foremost

the isums..

I’ve worn many of those isms , and I

grew way off course , over and over

assisted, supported , and abusive and

imprinted with so much low energy ,

dispite , all the bubbling and effort

our youngest son, called it , all that I have

experienced has taught me , made me

independent , and I’m prepared for

inheritance , that provides the denied

foundation , by generations of women

in family on either side .

Though depleted as they grew older , both

grandmothers , and mother , father had

fine cloths current with fashions ,

Christians , with shadow, and abuses

and or secrets that have been shared

sparingly, in a test that I dont allow

to thank me as before, it arguments or

or attempts to distort facts , truths to keep

shame , mine …the easy target ..never

offered proof , just backing up the

delusion .

That’s not possible any longer, and

reading others express their experiences

SuperNova does apply , as Divine

whispers love and support , I sense the

transformation in major ways , and feel

way at peace , dispite the challenges ,

I hear SuperNovas being formed and

🎊🐸☯️♾❤🎯

Time for sleep !!!🎶💤❤

Blessings and Peace ,
