If you’ve noticed some unusual changes in yourself or someone you know, you should talk to someone – your family, friends, school counsellor, or your doctor. The first step is to ask for help. With early intervention and treatment, most people recover from a first episode of psychosis. Early intervention is the key.
If you need help or would like to refer someone that lives in the catchment area, call the agency nearest you.
