The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.
If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.
If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Paranoid schizophrenia is a specific condition in which people experience symptoms such as hearing voices or having strange beliefs, for example, for a period of time (usually over a month.)
Being acutely psychotic is to have the same symptoms but can be for just a much shorter period of time. Anybody can get this- a very high fever, certain drugs, sleep deprivation, severe stress, certain illnesses can all cause someone to become acutely psychotic.
Does that help?
