Psychotic disorders are a grouping of mental health conditions that can cause distortions in your thinking, self-awareness, and perception of the world around you. A key feature of these disorders is psychosis, which refers to the number of symptoms. Individuals who are experiencing psychosis have a hard time differentiating what is real and what isn’t.
Psychosis can include the presence of delusions, including hallucinations, and disorganized behaviors. These are known as positive symptoms of psychosis. Those who are living with psychotic disorders can experience a break from reality, like what you may expect from someone living with schizophrenia or, in some cases, bipolar disorder.
The signs and symptoms associated with psychosis and the varying psychotic disorders can vary. The National Institute of Mental Health indicated that many experience their first-episode of psychosis in their mid-20’s. However, symptoms can begin at younger and older ages, depending on the individual.
Symptoms associated with these conditions may vary in intensity and duration. They may also be influenced by stressors, traumatic events, and co-occurring disorders. Some of the common symptoms associated with psychosis and psychotic disorders include:
If you or someone you love is struggling with hallucinations, delusions, or disorganized behaviors, we encourage you to contact A Mission For Michael for a confidential and free mental health assessment.
