Mental disorders include disturbances in perception, such as reduced sensation, hypersensitivity, or hallucinations, as well as perceptual integration disorders, such as spatial perception abnormalities and visual distortion. They also involve attentional disorders, such as distractibility and narrowed attention. Additionally, they may include affective disorders, disorders of will, or consciousness disturbances, such as emotional instability, increased volition, and somnolence.
