Dr. Hamed Borham and Dr. Nashwa Osman presented the case of Said Fathy Mohammed AbdelAal, a 32-year-old married male admitted involuntarily to the hospital. Said has a 3-year history of paranoid delusions about his wife and auditory hallucinations. His condition worsened over the past month as he became socially isolated and convinced his wife and friends had betrayed him. His history notes periods of improvement on medication but non-compliance led to relapses. A mental status exam found dysphoric mood, delusional thoughts, and auditory hallucinations. The diagnosis was determined to be paranoid schizophrenia, continuous type with a non-functioning level.
