Does a patient recover from ICU Psychosis?
Depending on the illness, disease, or condition that put a patient in ICU to begin with, uncomplicated ICU psychosis is usually totally reversable. The cause must be determined, including review of all medications and their side effects. If a medication may have induced hallucinations, an alternative medication should be used. Nurses should continually reassess the patient's mental status and report changes to the physician. Sometimes, the patient is so ill from the original problem that the best course of action is to treat the psychosis without withdrawing a suspected medication, in cases where the suspected medication is deemed vital to the patient's physical recovery. Also, it's easy to become disoriented as a patient in an ICU. There are usually no windows, no indication whether it is day or night, sleep may be frequently interrupted or the patient loses days due to sedation, and other factors all contribute to disorienation and short-term psychosis.
How long does psychosis last?
It really depends. Some people have "psychotic episodes", short periods of mental illness, and other people can suffer from lifelong mental psychosis. Usually long tern sufferers of psychosis are treated with medication therapy, group therapy, or in extreme cases of psychosis where the patient is unable to operate or function normally in society with the help of medication, admittance into a mental hospital or other state funded facility is recommended for the lifelong treatment of the person suffering from the illness. There are differing degrees of psychosis. Mild degrees of psychosis are treatable, and the patient can resume normal daily life activities such as working a job, carrying on in relationships, and even getting married and having children. Hundreds and thousands of Americans can and do suffer from some degree of mental illness, and are able to operate perfectly fine in society. In some cases, mild to moderate degrees of psychosis are totally treatable and even curable.
Is postpartum depression a disability?
At the current time I and various other Doctors are unaware of any state in the United States, that would consider Postpartum Depression a disability, since most cases of this type of depressive state are temporary and very mild in contrast to more severe or permanent Psychological/Psychiatric Disorders; such as various types of Psychosis, Bipolar Disorders or Schizophrenia to give a small range of examples. These types of psychiatric disorders are permanent and disruptive to the life of the patient, therefore, allowing that person to file for disability claims because they can no longer function in society without assistance. It is possible for someone to enter into a Depressive state FROM Postpartum Depression, however, most doctors are now more than ever, keenly aware of what symptoms to look for in new mothers allowing doctors to properly treat or prevent their patients from falling into severe Postpartum Depression. I hope this answer somehow helped you. Best Wishes.
