In chronic form, these symptoms are most commonly associated with schizophrenia spectrum disorders, but they can occur in the context of many other illnesses, including major depression or bipolar disorder, substance intoxication or withdrawal, borderline personality disorder, and a wide range of other medical conditions, including neurodegenerative, infectious, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases (Table 31-1).
