What is Psychosis?

Psychosis is a mental health condition that disrupts how a person perceives reality.

Individuals experiencing psychosis may encounter hallucinations—sensations of seeing, hearing, or feeling things that aren’t actually present—or delusions, which are strongly held false beliefs resistant to reason.

Psychosis is not a diagnosis itself but a symptom that can arise from various mental health conditions, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depressive disorder with psychotic features.

What are Symptoms of Psychosis?

People experiencing psychosis may show a range of symptoms, including:

• Hallucinations (hearing, seeing, or feeling things that aren't there)
• Delusions (false beliefs that are not aligned with reality)
• Disorganized thinking and speech
• Difficulty concentrating or following a conversation
• Lack of insight or awareness of their condition
• Withdrawal from social interactions and family

What Causes Psychosis?

Psychosis can result from several factors, often a combination of biological, environmental, and psychological influences. Common causes include:

• Biological Factors: Genetics, structural changes in the brain, and chemical imbalances can contribute to the onset of psychosis.
• Environmental Triggers: Trauma, severe stress, and substance use are known triggers.
• Mental Health Conditions: Disorders like schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or severe bipolar disorder may present with psychotic episodes.
• Substance-Induced Psychosis: Certain medications, recreational drug use, or alcohol withdrawal can provoke psychotic symptoms.

Understanding the root cause of psychosis is crucial for developing a personalized treatment plan. If you're looking to discuss potential causes and treatments, call (630) 496-5368 for our Westmont clinic or (773) 900-8781 for our Chicago clinic. Our team is here to guide you.
