Symptoms of a psychotic

The sense of Political decoy brings us closer to the field of psychosis, a type of mental disorders in Spain that affect 440,000 people, according to the Congress for Psychotherapy of Schizophrenia and other psychoses, 2006.

To focus the issue, should be distinguished from psychotic disorders of the neurotic; those-such as depression-affecting the mood, but do not "lose your head", while the psychosis is characterized by the loss of a sense of reality and the vision of the world that shares the generality of humans.

Woody Allen said that "a psychotic is someone who thinks that two two are five, a neurotic knows that there are four but does not like." According to the psychiatrist Thomas Szasz, there is another difference: "in psychiatry is a person qualifies for neurotic if you suffer for their problems, and if you suffer from psychotic to others."

The most common symptoms of psychosis are in the form of cognitive disorders, perceptive, emotional and behavioural. The first-the cognitive-affecting intelligence, reason and understanding and make, for example, ideas of who suffers from becoming strangers to each other.

It also alters the thread of thought: no one understands the relationship they have with some other ideas except the affected. His speech becomes confused, his thoughts seem to accelerate or slow down and has difficulty concentrating, follow the thread of the conversation or remembering recent events.

Sometimes cree suffers from delusions and unusual things, for example, by the way that cars parked next to his house, thinks that the police are monitoring him and any reasoning or evidence against achieved disappointments.
