User:Mdbutler7/Substance-induced psychosis

-Added citation to lead paragraph

-Added missing citation for "Ketamine"

-Added "Treatment" Section to body of article

-Added References/Citations for "Treatment" section

-Remove "Substance use and schizophrenia" section of article altogether; this section leads a reader to insinuate that schizophrenia causes substance-induced psychosis; while people with schizophrenia report higher usage of psychoactive drugs, the information in this section take away from the true topic at hand. While the intent may not be to draw a causal claim, the tone of the section suggests it. I think the next section "Transition to schizophrenia" covers a sufficient amount of information regarding schizophrenia.

-Tltuggle18 Peer Review/ I intend to add to the "Signs and Symptoms" section to further describe the manifestations of psychosis per recommendation of this user. I do not intend to add images because I feel that there are not accurate images available to portray psychosis. I debated adding pictures/media for individual substances, but I felt it would take focus away from the main topic of the article.

-Jpow05 Peer Review/ I plan to expand the "Intro/Lead" paragraph of the article to include a summarization of how substance-induced psychosis is caused. The current lead paragraph speaks of drugs and chemicals but makes no mention of plants or non-medicinal substances, which are examples spoken about in the body of the article. I do not intend to add more information about the correlation between substance use and schizophrenia; I already removed information regarding schizophrenia as I felt it was unnecessary, insinuated claims not supported by empirical evidence, and took away from the topic of the article.

-Sld99 Peer Review/ The only critique from this user's review was to find more references. While I do not find many places that need additional citations, I do intend to replace certain citations within the article with more recent/up-to-date references.

Lead
Substance-induced psychosis (commonly known as toxic psychosis or drug-induced psychosis) is a form of psychosis that is attributed to substance intoxication. '' It is a psychosis that results from the effects of various substances, such as medicinal and nonmedicinal substances, legal and illegal drugs, chemicals, and plants.   Various psychoactive substances have been implicated in causing or worsening psychosis in users. ''  (moved to Main article 6/25/24)

Substance use and schizophrenia
Rates of drug use amongst people with schizophrenia are higher than the general population; 50% of those diagnosed with schizophrenia use substances over their life. There is a model that suggests this arises because those with schizophrenia self-medicate with psychoactive drugs. (Original intent was to delete this section altogether; after careful consideration, other Wiki users have addressed this and made the necessary edits to clarify the claims)

Signs and symptoms
Main article: Psychosis

Psychosis manifests as disorientation, visual hallucinations and/or haptic hallucinations. It is a state in which a person's mental capacity to recognize reality, communicate, and relate to others is impaired, thus interfering with the capacity to deal with life's demands. While there are many types of psychosis, the cause of substance-induced psychosis can be pinpointed to intake of specific chemicals.  To properly diagnose Substance-Induced Psychotic Disorder, one must conclude that exhibited hallucinations or delusions began during intoxication, withdrawal, or within a month after use of the substance and the symptoms are not related to a non-substance-induced psychotic disorder .

Treatment
'' Because substance-induced psychosis results from the consumption of a substance or combination of substances, treatment practices heavily rely on detoxification and discontinuation of the substance(s).   Detox and addiction treatment centers may often provide rehabilitation programs, including inpatient and outpatient treatment options, support groups, and extended treatment plans. Substance-induced psychosis may persist for hours, days, or weeks, but typically resolves within a month of sobriety.   Treating psychosis involves a very thorough evaluation, including medical history, family background, symptoms, and other potential causes.   Treatment prioritizes emergent symptoms, evaluates for underlying mental illnesses, and focuses on behavioral and preventative measures against substance use. '' (moved to Main article 6/29/24)
