What Is Psychosis?
Psychosis describes a set of symptoms that affect how the mind interprets reality. It can include hallucinations, such as hearing or seeing things others do not, delusions, or fixed beliefs that do not match evidence, and disorganized thinking that makes speech or planning difficult to follow.
Psychosis is not a single diagnosis. It can appear on its own, alongside schizophrenia spectrum disorders, or as part of a mood disorder, extreme stress, sleep deprivation, or substance use. Some people experience one episode; others need ongoing support to maintain reality testing and daily functioning.
