My definitions of psychosis are:

  1. Not knowing the Truth

  2. not knowing your likes or dislikes

  3. not being yourself

What is your definition of psychosis?

For me, psychosis is distorted perception. This can take many forms: paranoia, hallucinations, delusions, ideas of reference, illusions, “sensory overload”, grandeur, thought broadcasting and thought insertions, etc…
