What Is It?

Psychosis is a mental health condition where a person loses touch with reality. It can involve hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that aren’t there) and delusions (strong beliefs that aren’t based in reality), often causing confusion or fear.

Common Experiences

People with psychosis may hear voices, feel watched, or believe things others don’t. It can feel frightening and isolating, especially when others don’t understand. Thoughts may become jumbled, and daily life can feel overwhelming or hard to manage.
