N2 - The term 'psychosis' describes a broad range of experiences, including hallucinations, delusions and confused thinking. Schizophrenia, the most serious form of psychosis, affects 1 in 100 and is traditionally characterised as a loss of contact with reality. The symptoms of psychosis are classified as positive and negative. Positive symptoms include hallucinations, mainly auditory but also visual, tactile or olfactory, and disorders of thought, including delusions. Negative symptoms include cognitive dysfunction, loss of volition, anhedonia and poor self-care skills. Schizophrenia is frequently associated with impairment of cognition and emotion. Vocational and social functioning are often disrupted and the problem is associated with considerable social and economic burden to the individual, their carers and society as a whole.
