Psychosis can be a difficult thing to explain. It is a term used when people experience a ‘loss of touch’ with reality. Around 3% of people will have a psychotic episode during their lifetime.
Leading the discussion for us today is Maleeha, a member of the peer support group at Headroom Cardiff, who support young people in Wales that have experienced psychosis. Joining Maleeha are Bekah and Hezron, both of whom have experienced an episode of psychosis and became friends through the peer support group.
Maleeha, Bekah and Hezron, kindly share their experiences of psychosis which they went through as young adults at university. They also share what they found helpful during this time and the difference the support services and peer support group made to their recovery.
If you or someone you know may be experiencing psychosis, you should contact their GP practice. If there's an imminent danger of harm, call 999 and ask for an ambulance.
