Drug-Induced Psychosis and Treatment
Drug-induced psychosis is a severe mental health condition triggered by substance use, characterized by hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking. Substances like methamphetamines, cannabis, and hallucinogens are common culprits. The condition often resolves once the substance is metabolized, but in some cases, it may unmask or exacerbate underlying mental illnesses. Treatment involves discontinuing the substance, providing a safe environment, and administering antipsychotic medications when necessary. Long-term strategies include addressing the root causes of substance use through therapy and rehabilitation programs. Early intervention is crucial to prevent complications and ensure better outcomes for individuals experiencing drug-induced psychosis.
