Psychosis can happen to anyone and it’s far more common than you think. Stress, drugs and sleep deprivation can all trigger an episode. Teenage and young adult brains are particularly vulnerable. Meet a group of young adults, who share their experiences and how they keep well.
If you know someone experiencing signs of psychosis help them get support as early as possible. A GP is a good place to start.

I love this. I work in a psychiatric hospital I see this a lot. It’s great to see people talking about it and how normal they are. It’s hard seeing them only in psychosis and not usually getting to see them better only because I work 3 days a week and people come and go so fast. The goal is to get people stabilized and back into society. I love helping people and treating everyone with dignity and respect.

Psychosis isn't a diagnosis its something attached to something else. (For example I have major depressive disorder with psychotic features). But psychosis isn't a mental illness, its the symptom of one.

Update: I didn't know much about psychosis at the time, but I was diagnosed as having a psychotic disorder. A year after that and another hospitalization, that psychotic disorder turned out to be Schizoaffective disorder. I'm doing pretty well now actually! So it's totally possible to function well again. It just takes time.

I had a friend in college who had psychosis, and I didn't know what it was called until she wrote about an episode on Facebook. There were times where she was very distant, even going to the extent of locking herself in her room up to two weeks at a time, only coming out for class and mealtimes, taking her food back to her room, sometimes not even for that. b One time, I knocked on her door, asking for her companionship to the dining hall, and she screamed at me to go away. Hurt, I asked her why she was pushing everyone away, and she said she was afraid of hurting other people. To that, I replied, "The Rose I know won't even swat a fly because she values its life. If you come with me, I'll make sure you don't hurt anyone, we'll bring our food back here. How does that sound? I think it will be good for you." She softened and obliged. Once we came back, she explained that she was overwhelmed by her class load and was afraid of doing something rash that would hurt someone close to her, including me. I convinced her to go to Student Counseling the next day, and she continued going as often as she could, and she thanked me for pushing her the way I did because she had been considering suicide that day, and it helped her get through that episode.

David Dodds God bless that you survived that. You are a true survivor. I was married to a narcissist for 20 years he’s a master manipulator and great at gaslighting. His parents taught him at childhood. I’m now set free. I wanted to understand why he’s the way he is. I go to the root problem he has rejection from his mom she never nurtured him. He hates women. When I was with him I felt like I was going crazy with the way he spoke and treated me. It was constantly mental gymnastics. I can’t explain it was all based on lies and no truth. For anyone to survive that Is a trooper. After I left I can now spot manipulating and narcissism and gaslighting from a mile way. David I pray you share your story with others. Their is strength in your survival of this. Everything the gaslighter has said to you is a LIE. No facts. The truth is your are a beautiful person inside and out. With feelings and emotions and you are valued.

I've always known I was at high risk of becoming schizophrenic...I was on mood stabilizers and had little episodes throughout my early teenage years. For anyone who hears voices from time to time or has moments of grandeur, some of the worst things you can possibly do are drugs; hallucinogens, like acid for me, and weed are the worst worst worst things you can do. I tripped two months ago and it sent me into psychosis. I just saw a psychiatrist yesterday and have a prescription now. For people living in these delusions, what we experience is entirely real, to us. However, we have to remember that at the end of the day, we are just experiencing the delusions of a sick mind. Your delusions are centered around things in your life which are relevant to you, such as religious beliefs you may or may not have had before your psychotic break. For me, my psychosis provided me a lot of insight into my bad habits and is actually helping me work on them. My advice is to find a stable base in your life, anything from self improvement to connecting with others or working on a long-term goal. If your psychosis becomes too much, just do your best to live your life in a way that would make you look back on your actions and not regret the way you've handled things. It feels like we're alone, but we aren't. I'm always here to talk or listen, so if you guys need anything, message me :) Peace, love, and joy to all of you.

I have PTSD, depression and GAD and have had several episodes of psychosis since 2001. It's absolutely terrifying but I notice my episodes are triggered by sleep deprivation. As long as I can sleep I'm ok and can cope with my other mental ilnnesses. But tbh I'm scared I'm headed towards another psychotic episode because I can't sleep lately. My sister committed suicide after having battled schizophrenia for 8 years. This was 2 years ago. Losing her has been the hardest thing and I fear if I have another psychotic break, I'll end my life too.

Withdrawing from benzos caused me to have hallucinations; auditory and visual, and the insomnia made it worse. It was absolutely terrifying, especially when I thought people I loved were out to get me. It was so so realistic. I'm 100% better now, but I do have a family member who suffers from paranoid schizophrenia. Going through that really helped me understand what she goes through. I pray all of these people stay strong. Love and support are so important during this. ❤️

My sister is currently in a state of psychosis at 36. She has been Jesus and will be the second coming of christ. It started by a fascination in numerology and how she kept seeing certain numbers. Then progressed to her being able to talk to the spirit world which then progressed to her being Jesus. This has all been in a span of about a week. Not sure how long psychosis will last but we can't get her treatment because she truly believes she's here to save the world and nothing is wrong. "They" will take her to the moon where she will transition and come back in her Alien body. It's been very difficult but nothing we can do, she doesn't want help and she hasn't done anything for her to warrant an involuntary hospitalization.

Sykedhorse I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s hard to watch someone you love turn into someone different in bad ways. Since I posted this comment my mom went through another one and we are actually about to pick her up from the hospital. Unfortunately psychosis I don’t think it goes away without treatment. Cause people in psychosis usually don’t sleep and it just continues to get worse. My mom got diagnosed with bipolar 1 and no matter how long we waited to get her to hospital it would progressively get worse until they were able to give her medicine to put her to sleep. I’m not sure if you live in USA but there may be a mobile mental health crisis unit that can come to your house and access her mentally and then get her treatment

Recovery is an inaccurate way of describing it. "Management" is more accurate. The mental illness never goes away, but psychiatric medication and therapy can help reduce the symptoms to where a person can live with the mental illness. They seem sad bc they know it'll never go away. The way they are feeling now is probably how good they'll ever feel in their lifetime considering the psychosis.

I've been dealing with Psychosis for more than 5 years now. I have read that the sooner you have it diagnosed and treated, the better off you will be. Medication and regular Psychiatrist appointments keep it manageable, but I still get episodes pretty often. This disease is an isolating one. I have lost a lot of friends due to not being able to connect with them. And I am sort of ashamed of having to explain myself to others. I am just blessed to have such a good support system from my family. I hope you all find some peace during this holiday season. And in the rest of your lives. Love and good thoughts go out to all of you who are directly affected or know someone struggling with a mental illness. Things can get better for us all. There is hope! 🤴👍🌅❤

It's great but at 11:00+ where they talk about partners helping them, that's depressing for someone who doesn't have that. Most people in psychic misery- and sickness are alone. I don't think anyone wouldn't love or want someone to be there for us, us with mental problems, but the last truth is that no one can bear our cross but ourselves... I think it is very detrimental and horrid to make it out as if someone else can make us swim when we are drowning. It helps, it truly does, to have a lover, friend, family, etc. to help you. But not everyone has that luxury.

I was alone for a long time. But eventually I started to get the help I personally needed and that included educating the people around me and I'd send them videos just like this so they could understand and see how important it was for them to be patient with me. Nothing but love for you buddy. Good luck and stay safe.

A really good friend of mines has bi-polar disorder and when she's in a manic state has hallucinations, delusions, hears voices etc. Her parents are very old in their 80s and didn't have the mental or physical strength to deal with her symptoms. They also had absolutely no idea what to do to get her well again. So i became her power of attorney even though i have depression, anxiety, PTSD, BPD and insomnia. I have to say having BPD and dealing with her was extremely hard bcuz when someone aggravates you which she did many times we want to lash outat them. I never did though not physicallyy anyway. i may have been like wtf u need to chill out but i could never hurt her she needed me more then she ever had before and i was there for her. It definitely was the most challenging thing i have ever dealt with. It took a lot of time and i honestly believe helped it helped me to better control my emotions and taught me patience. But after almost a whole year of going to drs andy therapist appointments and many trips to the psychiatric ward and even going to court to get her mandated medication injections she finally got well again and has been doing so good for going on 2 years now. Im wicked proud of her and of myself too!

It does really suck and is so hard to get through but to anyone else who’s experienced this you guys are so strong I know how hard and confusing it is.

Makes you feel a little less lonely watching something like this. Makes me want to get help. I have had severe depression for a long time, got RA when I was 17, I am bi-polar, told I am very psychotic, sociopathic, paranoid, anhedonic, delusional, I am an alcoholic, had problems with gambling and drugs, got into a lot of very risky sexual situations, sometimes I feel way too much or absolutely nothing at all, have been suicidal, let it all go mostly untreated my whole life, never had a true friend, never been in a relationship, never had a good job, went through an anti-hoarding phase where I threw away everything I could so I was left with nothing in an empty room. Have ocd I think, paranoia is like mental ocd I think. My teeth are rotting, my hands and feet are deformed, I can't bend one of my thumbs, it is miserable and everything seems pointless. But I still believe there is some sort of hope somewhere, maybe I can get better, whatever the hell that means, I push everything away, maybe if I didn't have such powerful relentless anxiety I could get a job with health benefits or be able to afford to see a doctor. Just the thought of trying to live is nauseating, but hey it could be worse. Good luck everybody!

I've said the same thing with tears in my eyes! "I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy." Because it feels like a curse that I'm praying just eventually gets uplifted. I know what triggered mine, but that little specific information I hold dear, cause it just sounds crazy.. I can seem so normal around somebody, but good luck if you can see into my brain, my thoughts can be so evil, and it saddens me, because I LITERALLY don't have control over them. People tell me "just get ahold of them." Or "come socialize with your family/friends" but they don't realize that being around people makes it worst, so I just avoid them all together, because it'ssaid than done.i feel they can see my uncontrollable thoughts, that just keep going at 100 miles an hr[but I never let it leave my brain of course, cause they're not me].. by excluding myself i feel like I'm doing them and myself a favor... :(... cause idk, I feel like hurt them...... my brain just goes on these evil roasting sessions...and I feel bad, my heart hurts when it happens, and feels like it skips a beat, the only way I can explain how that feels is when somebody gives you a surprise scare... especially if it's family members, close friends, and even when I'm in a relationship... they don't know how much I love them.. my parents tried to get me help back when I was 17, cause that's when it started... they, the doctors diagnosed me with it, prescribed some pills, but they only made me angry? So I haven't had them since.. I'm 25 now... still in the same... I dont do the whole yoga thing, but i do cling to Jesus/God, He makes me happy, because He knows the heart of man.. there's times it's been lifted, but when I lose track of Him, I begin to lose myself again.. Oh that's another thing, when i would read my bible at first, it would get worst, the words I would read would get twisted in my head, and say evil, dark, sometimes perverse things ); like it hated God, it's actually the best way to put it, it feels like a demonic posession/oppression sometimes, so I would just be consistent reading [new testament and psalms book], but once I get over that, eventually my thoughts would quiet, like I couldnt think anymore. That works better than weed and drinking for me, in fact the weed would make it worst, so I've been clean pretty much.

It’s so hard having an episode. It’s secretive and self sacrificing as Psychosis disturbs your normal thoughts. It’s a disease & very common. We can get through this one step at a time . With lots of rest ( even thou sometimes impossible during an episode) thoughts become so urgent every other necessary human instinct is forgotten. It will get better . Very slowly . & Understanding the Psychosis are infrequent Helps one better get prepared and finally no more Episodes will occur . Hopefully 🙏. My first episode in my mid 2O,s was so harsh. Distressing & debilitating. If I get a day of no sleep it comes back. Sleep is the only antidote to Psychosis. Forever sleep 💤 is what helps me.

To all those who have faced psychosis whatever you do whatever makes you think you are not in the world of the living do not take your own life.I personally have just came out of psychosis and all I can say is there will be something good that guides you out of it there will be a way presented to you it may seem impossible at the time however do not give up & do not take the route of suicide whatever you do because that is the wrong option.I almost killed myself a few times due to it and it is a very scary illness reach out when you need the help & if you feel you can't because it is unsafe for you or those around yourself then return to what made you happy in life as a child this is hands down the thing that saved me whatever it was that you loved so dearly when you were younger will help you get out healthy eating and multivitamins as well as exercise helped me a lot.There is hope.

We consciously have thoughts but we also have unconscious thoughts that bubble up into our conscious awareness. Those are sometimes called "intrusive thoughts." People with OCD experience that a lot. These thoughts are not other people's voices. They are the person's own voice. The thought itself might be distressing...like if a person did something bad to someone and felt guilty about it. That guilt might spontaneously pop into their conscious awareness and make the person feel bad. And it really can't be controlled. So you're kind of right. We sometimes think things we dont't want to think about, but they are still our own thoughts. Psychosis is different in that people in psychosis seem to believe the voices they're hearing are from someone else. That isn't really possible because nobody can force you to hear their voice in your head. I have never been psychotic, but my theory on auditory hallucinations is that the voices are coming from the unconscious of the person and are breaking into their conscious awareness.

I developed psychosis when I was 18 and it was active for a long time. I am told I have residual psychosis now, so hopefully it will clear up in time. Residual means it is no longer in the active stage, so it is a few negative symptoms remaining and not positive symptoms like paranoia, etc.

I had entered into my first ever psychotic state due to stress and substance abuse 2 years ago. The worst part of it lasted about 2 months but some of the delusions are just now starting to wear off. I was involuntary hospitalized twice. I had been with my husband for 14 years at the time of my episode, but even after taking meds everyday and being stable for over a year, he was unable to forgive me for the stress I put him through and divorced me. That's been really hard. The very worst part of my story is that the catalyst of my psychosis was when I repented to God and asked Jesus Christ to help me and save me. I had the weirdest things happen to me during that time that I still can't explain. Like bouts of automatic writing with purple glow around my phone full Bible verses (I had never read the Bible and only later learned it was word for word). Seeing something described in the book of Ezekiel (again I didn't know this at the time only later on which really blew my mind open). It was amazing and spiritual and I 100% KNEW that God was talking to me. But it was such a rollercoaster of emotions and it got REALLY dark at times and once I became threatening towards myself and others. Idk it was just an absolute dream and a nightmare at the same time.

I'm dealing with this with my fiance. He got us kicked out of where we living, he tried to cheat on me, he sold, lost, broke or gave away his most prized and expensive possessions. Ruined his relationship with his family, had the cops called , a crisis team, he wont get help. He spends all day downtown hanging out with homeless people and sleeps in a tent, when he does sleep. He also walks around barefoot and is bathing in a river....he says he's having the time of his life..maybe I dodged a bullet....can you believe if we were married and had a mortgage or kids... This is some of the most unbearable pain for me, I'm so Confused 😕 i can't eat I'm throwing up from stress and crying. Yet. He's fine. He just gave away his 800 dollar bike for $7 ....says he doesn't care about material things and it's not even paid off yet. He got fired from his job and drained the bank acct. He's panhandling now. I hope one day he realizes he all the hurt he's caused us and feels remorse. 💔 it's so tragic he threw away his hopes and dreams and our future together . He refuses help. I pray he doesn't end up dead or in jail.

This message is to anyone who is dealing or has dealt with psychosis! You all are one of the bravest people outthere! And I cant even imagine what it is to go through on the first place! However, my sister has been diagnosed with psychotic disorder after my dad passed away ... I have read a lot of materials and books etc trying to understand and help her any way i can , but there is a problem - i dont live in the same country... for now my mom is looking after her and i am supporting them both finantially (hence I live in another country). I dont know what is best as my sister does not take her pills and manipulates us and sometimes gets agressive when she is reminded to take them. I am calling her everyday to assure her that i am there for her and i will do all that i can to make her feel better , but i know this is not enough! My question is: shall me and my mom try to hospitalise her? All the "family friends" tell me that this wont help, and that its better to just look after her at home, but i love her more than words can say and i want my sister back and not this stranger the illness has turned her into! I want her to be herself again and not be scared and have panic attacks, I want her to smile again without her feeling trapped or scared for her life, I want her to be able to live again!! All of you lovely people who have been through this - please let me know - is there a hope if we hospitalise her ? I am scared that she will take it as rejection from her family! Because to hospitalise her without her consent (as she does not admit she is ill and that she has dellusions)I need to forcefully take her to court and prove she is not well. So I think this might traumatize her even more , that her family has done this to her! Thank you to all who have read this and thank you if you are willing to share your experience and advice with me! I appreciate every advice and especially from people who have gone through something familiar! I would be very very gratefull!

I cried everyday thinking about past.I started loosing trust and started ghosting my friends. I was stuck . It took me a lot of time to get back normal. I’m glad I asked help from my parents. The next day I saw psychiatrist. I burst out in front of my therapist.I cried a lot. Meds helped me. Don’t do drugs guys.worst mistake of my life. Especially doing it alone .

I wonder why when someone had a psychotic episode they don't experience pleasurable things? I feel so sad that these poor people must feel so frightened and unsure of themselves. I wish society had a deeper understanding and were more empathetic of people who are suffering so much. Mental illness does not discriminate and anyone at any time could fall prey to this terrible condition. I think they are very brave. I admire their courage and determination.

A lot of times, psychosis can be brought on a traumatic event (sexual/physical/mental abuse either as a kid, teen, or adult), or a very stressful patch in their life, or like this doc said it could be because of drugs/alchohol making it worse. So, it makes sense why good episodes don't really happen because its root cause (not all cases of course) is because of something bad.

I've always been curious about the breakdown between those with schizophrenia caused by a traumatic event and those who have it without one. In a lot of these stories, they'll often quickly mention an "episode" or "event" which spurned the disease but they often don't go into what those events were.

Thank you for this video. It has helped to bring me to an awareness of the severity of mental phsychosis, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. You have demonstrated so much courage and bravery bringing it out in the open. I'm completely convinced that it was extremely hard to confront and accept the condition. Doing something about it was a huge hurdle that allowed an opportunity to have some sort of normality restored. My heart goes out to those of you that suffer with mental illness. I'm pretty sure it is everything each and everyone of say it is, (hell, torment). Mental illness runs in my family as well and caring for an older sibling with paranoid schizophrenia is very challenging. This video has helped me a lot and I am learning every day little by little on the subject. I just feel so helpless when this sibling goes through a psyhcotic episode. Again, thank you for your transparency. Sincerely, Humbled 💓🤗🙏🙏🙏🙏💐

Everybody who has someone who needs help, please don't push them away! They are not fault for the illness they have. As someone who lost most of his friends due to psychosis and drug use, having someone beside you who will help in the bad times, is the most important thing you can get. My biggest regret since I'm "normal" is that I destroyed most of my relationships with people who where important to me. Accepting that I've done so much bad things is a bigger fight for me than the illness itself.
