Psychosis is a treatable mental health condition that results in you seeing the world around you in a distorted way.

 

Psychosis can cause you to lose contact with reality and, during your period of illness, you may perceive things differently from people around you. It’s not surprising that it can be an alienating experience and scary for your family and close friends.  ​

​

You are not alone. Psychosis affects 1-3% of the population, which is higher than diabetes in young people. Psychosis can be frightening but, asking for help early on means you can access support and get back what you think you have lost. If you seek help and treatment early, you have a much higher chance of recovery.
