The experience of psychosis is more common than most people think and the good news is that it is treatable. About 3 out of every 100 young people will experience psychosis. Symptoms of psychosis rarely emerge suddenly, but may develop gradually with subtle changes in the following areas:

• Worrisome drop in grades or job performance
• New trouble thinking clearly or concentrating
• Suspiciousness/uneasiness with others
• Decline in self-care or personal hygiene
• Spending more time alone than usual
• Increased sensitivity to sights or sounds
• Mistaking noises for voices
• Unusual or overly intense new ideas
• Strange new feelings or having no feelings at all
