It has long been a controversial issue and is still debated whether delusions and other psychotic features in depression denote a qualitatively distinct psychopathological entity or merely manifest a greater severity of the depressive disorder continuum [50]. Demographic and clinical characteristics (phenomenology, course and prognosis), family history, treatment response and neurobiological markers have been used as variables to validate the diagnostic autonomy of delusional from non-delusional depression [3, 10, 49 –51].
In depressed patients the adaptational qualities of the affect as a signaling and protective psychological mechanism are apparently degraded [1]. DIAGNOSIS OF DEPRESSIVE DISORDERS: A REVIEW 21 Worth mentioning are the theoretical approaches on the distinguishing features between normal sadness, mourning and morbid depressed mood developed by the psychoanalytic school that still follows Abraham’s and Freud’s original psychodynamic formulations [84].
