Psychosis can be frightening and deeply misunderstood. For someone experiencing it, voices, beliefs, perceptions, and events that seem unreal to everyone else can feel completely real.
Dr. Andrew Rosen and Dr. David Gross break down what psychosis actually means and why losing the ability to distinguish between what is real and unreal can happen for very different reasons. They discuss schizophrenia, bipolar mania, substance-induced psychosis, dementia, and postpartum psychosis, while explaining why one psychotic episode does not automatically mean someone has schizophrenia.
They also explore hallucinations, delusions, paranoia, and the challenges families face when trying to reason with someone whose reality is fundamentally different from their own. The conversation looks at the importance of taking time to determine what may be causing psychotic symptoms rather than jumping too quickly to a diagnosis.
From treatment and medication to family support and preventing future episodes, Rosen and Gross emphasize that education can help replace some of the fear surrounding psychosis with greater understanding and empathy for the people experiencing it and the families trying to help them.
