- Do you see what I see? Hallucinations and Delusions in Parkinson's
Psychosis can be a frightening word. In Parkinson’s disease, the medical definition of psychosis usually starts with mild symptoms that can have a big impact on quality of life. Psychosis can vary from severe confusion to seeing things that aren’t there, to believing things that are not true. Find out what causes these symptoms, how people with Parkinson’s might experience them and management strategies.
