A member asked:
Is cbt effective for psychosis?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
It depends: This depends on how severe the psychosis is, and whether it's in enough remission to be able to participate fully in this type of therapy. If the person drops out part way through, the gains will not be as good.
