Helping someone with psychosis starts with staying calm, listening without judgment and letting them lead the pace. Don’t argue with hallucinations or delusions, but don’t pretend to share them either; focus on how the person feels and on keeping them safe. You can’t force treatment, but you can stay connected and help them find support. If you’re not sure where to start, call the Mental Health Hotline at
866-903-3787 to get connected with resources for your loved one or for yourself.
