Does not mention that at certain times and places in world history these or similar phenomenon were not seen as insane. -- Daniel C. Boyer 20:41, 9 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Ideas of reference redirects to here, even though that its mentioned in the article how Delusion of reference should not be confused with it.
This article concerns cases (and gives many examples) where the subject perceives presumably meaningless or coincidental (contingent) aspects of the world, even humdrum everyday ones, as pregnant with meaning pertaining to themselves. A related, but quite distinct delusion would be where the subject believes that indeed every last detail of how things happen, is precisely so for some deep, hidden reason, which is simply hidden from the subject, and has nothing to do with the subject. 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:F858:C989:565D:F121 ( talk) 09:12, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
This topic has far too much weight on psychoanalysis and other fringe/pseudoscience theories.
Needs longer description with mainstream sourced perspectives.. SluggishSchizophrenic ( talk) 17:00, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
