Having experienced psychosis, I believe we can understand psychosis by understanding the trauma the person has experienced. For example, my voices were related to insults and fears that I had previously experienced, and my paranoia stemmed from environmental factors within my life
Trauma definitely plays a major role in at least 1/3 of people with psychosis, It sounds like you are very aware of your experiences and I hope that has come with the support you deserve, wishing you all the best and thank y you for your comment
@@AvaMason1 Thanks, I'd like to see the reference for that statistic because I've not met anyone who's experienced psychosis who's not experienced trauma or emotional turmoil
Thanks for the clarification on Psychosis. How can we explain hallucinations? Are these interal thoughts being externalised? And how would that explain seeing a spider or a shadow?
That is one fine summation. I think ACT (so-called 3rd wave CBT) has also now have some beginning indications for effectiveness. So much info, - - will need to listen again. And probably again.
I get the self evaluation part and the information gathering part being influenced but conventual Is such a low resolution way at looking at these problems. So the most commonly used therapy is CBT. Assuming reason being because it is generally effective because it selects for essentially the ease of access and that is what I would consider as a traditional therapy method today but have the definition for psychosis as conventional doesn't really deal with some of the human issues that may be explored through other therapy methods such vedic psychology, gestalt theory, Jungian therapy, etc.
@@tonyburton419 I don't believe there is any solid evidence when it comes to something similar to CBT but if you take anecdotal expierence into account, then there seems to be some real value. For example vedic psychology is based on Hinduism. But science has existed for around only 300 years and history is long an vast so there still much more to be discovered.
@@jojokester1256 Yes agreed. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy combines a number of disparate sources - from behaviourism to gestalt and has embraced some themes from past wisdom traditions. I was not aware Vedic psychology has a basis in Hinduism. That is worth exploring.

Hmm..is there any empirical evidence that vedic or gestalt approaches have effectiveness (although the word effectiveness needs clarifying).
