Article Excerpts about Psychotic Behaviour
A person who is psychotic is out of touch with reality. People with
psychosis may hear "voices" or have strange and illogical ideas (for
example, thinking that others can hear their thoughts, or are trying to
harm them, or that they are the President of the United States or some
other famous person). They may get excited or angry for no apparent
reason, or spend a lot of time by themselves, or in bed, sleeping during
the day and staying awake at night. The person may neglect appearance, not
bathing or changing clothes, and may be hard to talk to--barely talking or
saying things that make no sense. They often are initially unaware that
their condition is an illness. (Source: excerpt from Medications: NIMH)
