Caring Support for Your Psychosis

Experiencing psychosis can be incredibly disorienting and frightening.

    What is Psychosis?

    Psychosis is a mental health condition that causes a disconnection from reality, often manifesting as hallucinations, delusions, and confusion.

    An episode of psychosis can be triggered by various factors, including mental health disorders, substance use, or physical health issues.

    Psychosis is not a sign of weakness or personal failure—it’s a medical condition that requires treatment and care.

    Signs and Symptoms of Psychosis

    Recognizing the signs of psychosis is a critical first step toward mental wellness.

    When experiencing psychosis, you might encounter the following symptoms:  

    • Hallucinations: Hearing voices, seeing things that aren’t there, or feeling things that aren’t happening.  
    • Delusions: Holding beliefs that are not based in reality, such as thinking you have special powers or that others are plotting against you.  
    • Disorganized thinking: Having trouble organizing thoughts or making sense of conversations.  
    • Impaired reality testing: Difficulty distinguishing what is real from what is not.  
    • Mood disturbances: Emotional swings or extreme mood changes.  
    • Cognitive challenges: Difficulty concentrating, remembering things, or making decisions.  

    Different Types of Psychosis

    Our clinicians are trained to identify and treat different types of psychotic disorders. Some common forms include:  

    • Postpartum Psychosis: A rare but serious condition that occurs shortly after childbirth, characterized by severe mood changes, hallucinations, and delusions.  
    • Drug-Induced Psychosis: Triggered by the use of substances such as stimulants, hallucinogens, or alcohol, this type of psychosis can occur as a negative side effect and may last as long as the substance remains in the body but can persist in some cases.  
    • Cannabis-Induced Psychosis: Psychosis that results from excessive marijuana or cannabis use, often linked to high THC levels. Symptoms usually subside once the substance is metabolized, though underlying mental health issues may exacerbate symptoms.  
    • Schizophrenia: A chronic condition where psychosis is a long-term symptom, often manifesting as persistent hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking.  
    • Bipolar Disorder: Psychotic symptoms can occur during manic or depressive episodes, often including hallucinations or delusions.  
    • Severe Depression: In extreme cases, depression can trigger a psychotic episode and certain symptoms, including paranoia or hearing voices. 
    • Brief Psychotic Disorder: A short-term mental health condition that involves a sudden onset of psychotic symptoms. 

    How We Treat Psychosis

    At Clear Behavioral Health, we understand that psychosis requires a personalized treatment plan. Our comprehensive treatment for psychosis includes:  

    • Medication: Antipsychotic medications are often prescribed to manage symptoms like hallucinations and delusions. If there is an underlying condition such as bipolar disorder or depression, we will also address that with the appropriate medication.  
    • Therapy: Therapy is essential in helping you understand the causes of psychosis and learn effective coping skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one approach we use to challenge harmful thought patterns and promote healthier thinking. We also offer other therapeutic modalities to help manage symptoms and improve emotional regulation.  
    • Holistic Care: We believe in treating the whole person. Along with traditional therapies, we offer yoga, mindfulness, and meditation to reduce stress and help you reconnect with your body and mind.  
    • Comprehensive Support: If there are other mental health or substance use issues contributing to your psychosis, we address them through our dual diagnosis programs. This ensures you receive the full support needed for a balanced recovery.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      • Can psychosis be cured?

        Psychosis is a complex and nuanced disorder. Depending on the type of psychosis you are experiencing, and the severity of your psychosis symptoms, there are many forms of treatment to manage your psychosis effectively. “Curing” your psychosis depends on your individual circumstance. However, with support such as antipsychotic medications, therapy and community support, you can get to a life-long place of clarity and mental wellness.

      • How long does psychosis last?

        The length of psychotic symptoms depends on the root cause of the symptoms, and your individual circumstances. Some diagnoses such as brief psychosis can last anywhere from a few days to a month. Other psychosis diagnoses can be chronic and last indefinitely. Finding treatment can reduce the frequency of your symptoms and improve your overall quality of life.

        Psychosis affects each person differently, which means treatment for psychosis varies depending on the severity of your symptoms.

        I can’t say enough good things about Clear Behavioral Health. The care that I received was exceptional. The staff are very professional and committed to providing outstanding treatment. They go out of their way to cultivate an atmosphere of compassion, awareness, and recovery.

        The multi-pronged approach; the counselors, individual therapy, nutrition, sympathetic/empathetic counselors of each group session shifted my brain paths. You are never finished there, even when you “graduate”, they hold alumni group sessions when you feel you need it. I have nothing but gratitude for their program.

        Clear Behavioral Health is my second family that I never knew I had that supported me and continues to passionately support the sober community. The therapists, counselors and group facilitators have been amazing in helping me have a voice, loving myself again, and seeing the world in a new light. I am eternally grateful.

        From the get go, the staff made me feel welcome and were all very friendly. My therapist and case manager were also very helpful and supportive throughout the whole process. I found that the somatic therapy was the most valuable for me, the therapist who ran those groups was great. My biggest takeaway from treatment was to take the time to pause, not be afraid to ask for help, and not worry about things in the moment. If you are looking for meaningful change and being part of a new and supportive community, then Clear Behavioral Health is the right fit.

        Overall I loved the experience and did not want to leave. The staff was very helpful and motivated me to stay even when I felt like running away. I also built meaningful connections with my therapist and case manager who gave me a lot of useful advice and are still supporting me today. Since leaving, my family and sponsor have noticed a big difference, and I could not recommend a more supportive environment for addiction and mental health treatment, Clear saved my life.
