Psychosis is a severe mental health condition which leads to a person losing touch with reality. In many cases, psychotic disorders are induced through the abuse of drugs or alcohol. It doesn’t necessarily follow that a person abusing substances for a prolonged period of time is at greater risk of developing psychosis. In many cases, psychotic disorders are triggered in individuals abusing substances at any stage of their journey, depending on their genetic predisposition.
Living with someone with a psychotic disorder can be challenging due to the nature of its symptoms. People with substance-induced psychosis commonly experience delusions and hallucinations but without the insight of whether they are real. The kind of symptoms a person with substance-induced psychosis will experience includes the following:
In the majority of cases, people who have two mental health conditions such as addiction and psychosis can be effectively treated. Known as dual-diagnosis patients, specialist rehab clinics treat both conditions separately, while at the same time for the most effective recovery.
It is important that people suffering from substance-induced mental health conditions seek treatment as soon as possible. It is much easier to achieve effective recovery when treatment is received in the early stages of mental illnesses.
