Psychosis
Psychosis is a general term used to describe a mental health issue in which a person experiences changes in thinking, perception, mood and behaviour which can severely disrupt their life. By definition, psychosis involves the person losing some touch with commonly accepted reality, though the extent of this may vary. For a person affected by psychosis, relationships, work and self-care can be difficult to initiate or maintain.
The main psychotic diagnoses are schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, psychotic depression, schizoaffective disorder and drug induced psychosis.
