I went to two psychologists with very psychotic symptoms (but mild) and neither of them noticed it had psychosis. I went untreated for a year and a half. They both have this idea that psychosis means that you are going to be a rambling mess that is unable to hold a conversation. That is simply not always the case.

This is for everyone going through psychosis: Stay strong, you will be all right! You’re not alone. Contact someone to help you through this. I had drug induced psychosis from weed and DMT and i felt like i’ll never feel ok and my life is lost but it’s not. I am completely fine and happy right now after 2 months of recovery without medication. I am back to my normal life like nothing has happened. So have hope and patience and everything will be okay♥️♥️

I appreciate your words of encouragement but...my fiance just broke into straight psychosis for the first time in his life....I feel for your drug induced pain but hun....pure psychosis is nothing what you'd imagine....after meds and months ND months in a psych ward...unfortunately, alot of ppl never come back to reality....I just lost my fiance to schizophrenia....I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I now cab barely function...I struggle horrendously....I had no family and now I lost the only person that loved me.....this is excruciating. He doesn't even think anything is wrong.... He left me after a couple days being 302 in a hospital....for a chic he just met in there...I cant....i cant

I agree that young people need to get more information and awareness about psychosis. I even think that this subject, and similar subjects should be a part of general education. Why not teach this in schools as a part of the main curriculum? Why depend on volunteers to spot for early signals. Why would 16 to 24 year old choose to educate themselves in this subject? I'd recon they do not have the responsibility yet, to choose to do something that is depressing, and that they barely understand.. I would suggest to make psychology a mandatory course in every high school around the world. That would solve these problems and many similar problems like this.

We had it in my high school (in the US) and it was really good, but more basic and the in depth portion was focused on understanding how difficult it would be to live with it/having compassion, they did not cover how to help identify it and what to do for that person. We definitely need more psych and communication classes in high school....it’s all at the root of what brings communities down. Our education system is messed up. We don’t even learn how to do taxes, but it’s something we have to do after we graduate. A class on financial responsibility should be added as well.

For early intervention its rather late to the party, I've had numerous (small) psychotic episodes in the time I've called up about it and been referred, yet every time I call up it's still being reviewed I can't go out, I can't be in an educational setting my anxiety and depression have reached new levels, I feel sick to my stomach and upset, I've been to the GP about it, I'm due a blood test to rule out any indicators of infections as a cause. It's hard to hold onto the belief that people are doing everything they can when you're waiting days without treatment in distress panicking about when the next moment will be, It makes me wonder if I'll have to be on the edge of a cliff just to get help, thankfully my family are very supportive and calming during this difficult time as are my teachers, I just wish this would be over with so I can get back to my life not this constant uneasiness, constant paranoia, constant anxiety, waiting for the impending triggers to set me off, to see things and hear things that aren't there again. My heart goes out to anyone else suffering just the same, it really is horrible.

Are you better today? I hope you got help shortly after this post. Do you have suggestions on how to get help quickly at this point? For me, it's go to an ER in a smaller community. Get out of the big city ER's and highly populated areas.. Then, tell them you are in psychosis and need help. That MIGHT expedite things.

So many barriers to get to mental health resources

What I'm hearing is getting people in someone's life to monitor and 'help' them. One of my paranoid thoughts during psychosis were thinking that everyone is secretly involved in 'helping' me. So I could imagine if a person finds out everyone is suddenly monitoring them even if it is to help, can be quite scary.

Very good talk. Her outlook on mental health and how we can treat it if addressed early on is inspiring.

Really good mindful piece about intervention and getting proper treatment, emphasizing coordinating the timing during a psychotic episode with first responders. Great awareness increaser of psychiatric and psychotic intervention and treatment!

Thank you!!!

I recovered from psychosis roughly about a year and a half ago. Had a episode that lasted roughly 5 months before I got diagnosed and treated. Medicated for a little white with brief periods of hallucinations frequently… then started self medicating and got heavily addicted to hard drugs for a year. Stopped the drug use by myself with out support slowly taught myself how to live with the hallucinations and paranoia and ignore them and eventually they went away from time to time I still get paranoid every once in a while but I can live with that. The issue now is my bipolar disorder I can manage the highs but the lows kill me. I don’t find happiness in much things and I feel like I’m just fighting to breathe balance my emotions and my mental state half the time. I’m afraid I don’t have the energy to be a good father, partner, brother, son or friend anymore. I feel empty with no one to talk to cause everyone things I’m so strong and they don’t even know half of the truth… only what I’m not to ashamed to tell them. But I’m not strong I’m weak. I feel so weak now

Do you feel like having people to have real conversations with would help? For me the biggest help has been finding men with whom I can bring all the darkest stuff to surface, and then with a mutual challenge to strive to beat these. I'm a follower of Jesus, just now at 31 I'm finding that we can actually fight these things with faith and just being vulnerable, and pressing on. I pray and believe that God will meet you where you are and help you with all things!

Very good talk about mental health. She's right we need a culture change about mental illness

A lot of talk to get people to be drug dependent as soon as possible. Then again, some people do need intervention as soon as possible, for sure. I just want people to know how to be free from the symptoms by addressing the cause of schizophrenia. Yes, I said it. I know what is causing schizophrenia because I had it and I no longer have any of the symptoms. The delusions themselves are the cause of schizophrenia as well as the symptoms. People didn’t suddenly begin believing strange things. They have been believing strange things for a while. The psychosis is the result of all the confusion from believing things that are not true. It’s an escalation of a sort of cognitive dissonance that may take advantage of short term memory loss where the person can’t remember if something is true or not and just believes things, anything that comes to mind. The person gets caught up in a circular line of reasoning and they can’t get out. Every stimulus takes them back into the same line of reasoning. They develop a one track mind so to speak.

I always found my diagnosis for psychosis,Ironic, because when I was little and my self-harm was brought up (by a misunderstanding and accident) The person who showed up said "There's a place for kids like you," now I was an eight year old, so I wasn't the most rational, and I started to hear a voice, referencing Psych wards in movies. And How I was going to get needles poked into me. So I kept it to myself for years. I didn't get a real diagnosis till I was 15. In that spare time it started to develop more and more, I started hearing things, seeing things, and having delusions. All because I was scared to get help from a physc ward.

Good idea

totally unrelated to talk but where did you get that skirt? want one!

Honestly, I may be undergoing psychosis but I'm doing my best to maintain my moods, diet, and health. Socially, it's harder due to lockdowns and such (I understand why) but I do feel people with Psychosis need more supports and a schedule. That's my main problem, but I'm finding my way. I try not to do too much alcohol and marijuana cause I'm more likely to devolp Schizophrenia. Haven't seen any psychologists or therapists cause I ain't got the money for it. I'm more afraid of getting diagnosed incorrectly and pay for a whole lot of nothing.

No one helped my brother, he had no insurance.

Actually people who take antipsychotics are more likely to have heart disease and diabetes, as well as excessive weight gain. And the vast majority of people who are treated with these drugs are completely debilitated, never returning to work and school, spending the rest of their life on disability. Recovery rates are best when people are treated with little to no neuroleptics, such as in Open Dialogue and Soteria houses.

I would like to know when I have an episode and I'm around people people can hear and see what I hear and see how come is it things are visible to the eyes all eyes around me

The beliefs of the mentally ill are not false because it becomes real with the spirit.

What are the 'gold standard treatments for psychosis that work' that you fail to give any details about. Excuse my scepticism. I completely agree that early intervention is important and creating a safe space for young people to seek support is needed. Removing all barriers to young people getting care is great as young people are the most likely to have only one episode and never have a recurrence out of any age group, if handled the right way. The fact that you skirt around mentioning what these gold standard treatments that work are, does not engender trust. It feels evasive.
