Psychosis
Fantasy or Reality?
Psychotic Disorder may occur as a result of drug use, certain medications or other health conditions. An inability to discern reality from fantasy can be very distressing for those who love the individual experiencing this cognitive state. Other symptoms of Psychotic Disorder include verbal incoherence, aggression, hostility, engaging in repetitive movements, verbal gibberish that makes no sense, delusions, hallucinations and extreme agitation. The individual experiencing these symptoms is often not aware of their behavior and treatment often includes antipsychotic medications in addition to traditional therapy.
What are the symptoms of Psychosis?
One of the hallmark symptoms of Psychosis (Psychotic Disorder) is disconnection from reality and delusional thinking. This mental health condition is also characterized by hallucinations, verbal gibberish that makes no sense, and inappropriate behavior. Typically an individual will show behavioral changes before this condition is diagnosed. Some of those behavioral changes include paranoid ideation, difficulty thinking in a logical and clear manner, being suspicious of others or situations, withdrawing from society, unusual feelings or the lack of emotions, a decline in physical care, and disturbances in sleep. Treatment usually includes the use of antipsychotic medication.
