certain behavior in His house is not
acceptable.

58
Psychotic Episode
Simply defined, a person experiencing
psychosis has a distortion of reality caused
by delusions and/or hallucinations. The person
may be hearing voices, he may look at a
person and see a demon, he may think people
are after him, he may think he is Jesus Christ.
To the person, these hallucinations and
delusions are REAL.
59
Psychotic Episode
Hearing voices. Almost always, these are
very negative, command voices telling the
person things like “Die, die, die.” or “Kill
yourself.” or “You are in my space, MOVE.”
or “You’re no good.” or “He’s going to get
you.”

voices to hear two or three voices at one time.

your ear while an officer is talking to you.

Psychotic Episode
What are these voices like? Many people think it
is like when a parent dies and you hear their
voice in your head. MRI (Magnetic Resonance
Imaging) has show that the part of brain firing in
a psychotic episode is the same part of your
brain you are using to hear me.
62
Psychotic Episode
The voices these individuals hear while
psychotic are as real to them as my voice is to
you!
63
Psychotic Episode
Their senses are heightened. Sounds
are louder, lights are brighter. If you
approach a person in psychosis who is
hearing voices and start yelling at him
you are only adding to his confusion.
64
Psychotic Episode

may be looking at you, and see a demon!
You shouldn’t assume the person
recognizes who you are..
65

three angry violent voices, lights and sounds
are over stimulating you, and you haven’t
sleep for three days.
66

two students, one on either side, talking in the

how difficult it is to concentrate on the officer.
