The term psychosis is derived from the Greek psyche , meaning “soul,” “mind,” or “breath.” The ancient Greeks believed that the breath was the animating force of life and that when the breath left the body, as happened in death, the soul left the body. Because words that contain the root psyche (e.g., psychiatrist , psychiatry , etc.) are associated with the essence of life (usually related to the soul or human spirit) psychosis has come to mean that a person has lost the essence of life—that he or she has developed a private view of the world or a private reality not shared by others

anyone here my view???
It seems to me to be a way of discrediting any alternative view of the world that’s not accepted by people in higher up positions.
Just my view. I have already sat in front of doctors for a while now and tried to convince them that the coincidences in patient experiences of the other world is real, and I just get more hospital time and medication
Just stick around for the ride, just don’t think you can drive the car. That’s not allowed here

That is brilliant! Well done with making the connection to the Greek goddess Psyche! My personal take is that psychosis is caused by our soul (psyche) being in pain. Genius would be if soul pain could be treated with soul healing instead of just medications.
