Experience with psychosis?
« on: February 13, 2014, 04:13:27 am »

Hello.
I'm currently working on an experimental game concept which is going to help people who've had a psychosis.
We have at least identified three major subjects that we can focus on:
- Controlling/Preventing future psychosises. 
- Support in resocializing.
- Creating empathy from society

We have one person who's had 2 psychosises and has been institutionalized and he's been a great help for us. Based on his input, we made this user scene to showcase our view: http://vimeo.com/m/86408869
However, we're looking for more examples and insights and that's where I hope bay12 can help with. Has any of you ever had a psychosis? How did you experience it? What do you think might've caused this?

Many thanks!
