I'm struggling to tell my son his "new" diagnosis. See last comment above if you missed it.
He leaves off psychosis from all of his paperwork at dr offices (i know cause he's had a lot of them lately.) I've called him out on it, despite having several well documented episodes in the last 18mos. He gets extremely defensive about it! His idea of psychosis & psychotic are very warped. He's definitely dilusional a lot of the time and doesn't even realize it.
How should i approach it? This diagnosis will help him get services, but only if he tells people he has it!.
