It's like your brain is playing tricks on you. For example, you may see or hear things that aren't really there, or you may have strong beliefs that aren't based in reality. This can be very frightening and confusing.
People who develop a psychosis often lose touch with reality. This can make it hard to think clearly, make decisions, or communicate with others. It can also lead to emotional problems, such as feeling sad or angry all the time, feeling hopeless or helpless, or feeling like life isn't worth living.
