• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Psychosis won't be diagnosed unless he's had a break with reality. For instance, if he suddenly truly believes he's Jesus Christ or Adolf Hitler or King Louis XIV, that's a psychotic "break."

If he mean's he's psychopathic, then he'll display antisocial behavior (actions that harm or disregard the emotions of others), diminished empathy (an inability to identify with the emotions of others), and uninhibited or bold behavior (like brashly stealing from a store without regard for the consequences).

This is not a diagnosis, as I am not a mental health professional, and a diagnosis for anything requires evaluation and observation by a professional. I don't know what the mental health system is like in the Philippines, but I hope he gets the help he needs.
