My other 1/2 had a brief psychotic episode (no diagnosis of anything else as no psychosis following this period) in jan last year & was sectioned. The hospital were great (apart from the one i guess neccesay time when she was restrained & injected-they were a bit rough so i hear) & the care she has now both from her psychatrist & the early intervention team (insight team) & especially her car worker Chris has been nothing sohort of amazing! She's also received excellent help from a psychologist & is 150% more able to deal with anxiety than before. It's been 5 1/2 months since shes had any thoughts/anxieties & she's currently 'tapering off' her olanzapine & hopes to be med free soon.
It's been hard for her but she's back at work & doing fab & i truly beleive she's benefited from being ill (!) as she now realises that worry/anxiety can't rule her life anymore.
