Description
In this book Travis shares what it is like to have psychotic episodes while living with autism. Travis talks about his delusions and the psychosis he experiences and shares tips on coping and overcoming psychotic episodes. Travis has a fear that everyone is out to get him or hurt him and when he has psychotic episodes it is difficult for him to function and leave the house. Travis makes many mistakes during these psychotic episodes including lying and stealing. Travis explains that what seems like a lie to others is real to him due to the psychosis and the make-believe world he is experiencing. Travis shares his experience with counseling and seeing the psychiatrists while taking anti-psychotic medications. Travis continually works hard to overcome a lot of the psychotic symptoms. Travis shares how sometimes he wants to give up and has a difficult time overcoming the depression that comes along with autism and mental illness. He teaches some great coping mechanisms and goes into detail about what some of his hallucinations and delusions are. It is difficult to decipher which is better: Being psychotic or not being psychotic and coping with the reality of living with these psychotic episodes, mental illness, and autism. Read this book to learn more about delusions, hallucinations, and autism.--Provided by publisher.
