Psychosis

[melbournemum]

Hi All. My twenty one year old daughter was diagnosed with BPD last year, five years into her mental health journey. She has constant auditory and sometimes visual hallucinations which absolutely torment her. Do any other BPDs struggle with this?

Our objective is to better understand the struggles our child faces and to learn the skills to improve our relationship and provide a supportive environment and also improve on our own emotional responses, attitudes and effectiveness as a family leaders

My daughter struggled with auditory and visual hallucination for about 18 months.  The research I did suggested it was a result of anxiety and/or depression.  After her abilify was increased and she learned coping skills at RTC these events dissipated.

Other research suggested that marijuana use can induce psychosis in some people.

Is your d seeing a psychiatrist and psychologist?
