Is it considered a medical emergency if someone isn’t certain of what’s real and not real in their reality?

That’s usually one step closer to someone getting badly injured or even killed!

[Asker]

Yes, it is frightening.

[slatyb]

Only if they are a threat to harm themselves or others.

[Mariogirl09]

Yes they may be going through psychosis

[Asker]

Quite possibly, she doesn’t know what’s real anymore.

[Mariogirl09]

Sounds about right. Thats too bad. She needs to go to a psych unit

[Asker]

I should’ve said the truth that it’s me I was talking about. And part of me doesn’t want this reality to be real anymore. It’s too painful, much less heartbreaking knowing it’s a false reality.

[Asker]

I’m on meds by the way.

[Mariogirl09]

Its okay. It gets better with time. I also suffer from psychosis friend. You may need to go into a psych unit. Do you feel safe?

[Asker]

I don’t want it to fully go away because it helps me cope.

[Asker]

I’m safe though.

[Mariogirl09]

How does it help you cope? That kind of sounds like trauma

[Asker]

Because with it this world isn’t real even though it looks, hears, smells, and feels, it isn’t.

[jazzy34]

Yes, absolutely. Could be a psychotic break.

Not in Massachusetts, New York or California.
