Psychosis Screen

Screening for mental health is just as important as screening for other physical health issues!  Most of us go for a physical checkup once a year, but don't think twice about a mental health checkup.  Sometimes symptoms can sneak up on us gradually over time and we don't notice them until they start causing us problems.  Other times, symptoms come on rapidly and we are overwhelmed how to handle them.  We offer several mental health screens on this website to offer you a quick way to assess how you are doing in several key areas.  This is not a substitute for a full mental health assessment nor is it intended to replace mental health or medical care.  Only an independently licensed mental health or medical professional can provide a mental health diagnosis and treatment.  However, knowledge is power and these screening tools can help you become more aware of potential symptoms and alert you to seek help.

PSYCHOSIS SCREEN:  Please review the following statements and see if any are true for you:

  • I sometimes hear unusual sounds and/or hear voices that no one else seems to hear

  • I sometimes see things differently from the way they usually appear to me

  • I have telepathy, psychic powers, and/or the ability to forecast the future

  • I have difficulty getting my point across because I ramble when I talk

  • I have special powers, gifts, or talents

  • I sometimes feel that others are watching me or talking about me

  • I sometimes feel bugs crawling under my skin

  • I sometimes feel that someone or something is present, but I can't see it

  • I worry that something may be wrong with my mind

  • I feel that I don't exist or that I am dead

  • I sometimes feel confused about whether or not something really happened

  • I sometimes feel disconnected from other parts of my body

  • I don't trust other people

  • People sometimes have difficulty understanding what I am saying

If any of these statements are true for you and are affecting your ability to fully enjoy life, parent, socialize, work, or go to school, then it may be time to set up a mental health assessment.  Please contact us today at East Coast Counseling, LLC.  You can set up an intake appointment in less than 5 minutes on our online patient portal.  You could also go old school and call for an appointment!  Either way, we look forward to helping you feel better.
