[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 732484, member: 1550"] Is he out of touch with reality as in he sees and hears things that are not real but he think it is? Does he talk to things or people who are not there? That is psychosis. If he does understand reality and doesnt hallucinate but blames others for his problems, that is just not taking responsibility and is not a SERIOUS mental illness. You may think this way and have depression or anxiety but it is not the same thing and will not get the same fast treatment that somebody with psychosis will get. It is impossible not to know that somebody with schizophrenia/psychosis is very ill. It is easier to skip depression and anxiety and often this comes with a bad attitude when the person does something wrong. This can fall through the cracks. Our jails have become our mental health system. It's sad. [/QUOTE]
