Delirium is a common condition which acutely affects a person's mental health.  People with delirium often appear more confused than normal, with more difficulties with understanding and memory, and they can also have changes in their personality.  There are many causes of delirium ranging from physical health problems (like a urine infection) to a simple change of environment.  Treatment of delirium involves identifying and correcting the cause.
