Why Hindi matters for psychosis and schizophrenia
Psychosis, such as hearing voices or holding fixed beliefs that others do not share, is often first understood in Hindi-speaking families through other frames: upari badha, jaadu-tona, stress, or a person being "pagal". These explanations delay treatment, and the word pagal is deeply hurtful. A Hindi-speaking clinician can explain, in terms a family accepts, that psychosis is a medical condition that responds to treatment and that recovery is realistic. Five Mindly clinicians speak Hindi and list psychotic disorders or schizophrenia. They can speak to the person and the family together, or separately, which is often essential to keep treatment going.
What a first consultation in Hindi looks like
A first consultation in Hindi may involve both the person and a trusted relative. Your psychiatrist will ask about experiences such as voices, suspicion or changes in sleep and behaviour, how long they have lasted, and what has helped. They will explain what is happening, discuss antipsychotic medicine and what to expect from it, and talk about how family can support recovery. If there is any risk to safety, they will tell you what to do straight away.
Before your first Hindi consultation
If you are a relative, note what changes you have seen, when they started, and anything that has helped or made things worse. Bring any past prescriptions. If the person is willing, they should be in the room; if not, you may call us first for guidance. If anyone is in danger, call 112.
Hindi-speaking support when someone is hearing or believing unusual things
Psychosis can mean hearing voices, holding beliefs others do not share, or feeling watched or followed. The person affected may not feel unwell, and the family is often the one who calls. If you are calling for someone else, describe what you have seen, when it began, and any sleep loss or substance use. A Hindi-speaking psychiatrist can explain what is happening in plain language to the whole family. If there is a risk of harm, call 112 or go to the nearest hospital instead of waiting for a consultation. Treatment usually involves medicine and ongoing family support.
What online care for psychosis and schizophrenia involves
Care for psychosis begins with understanding what the person has experienced, how long, and whether substances, medical illness or mood disorder contribute. Treatment usually centres on antipsychotic medicine, with careful attention to side effects, together with psychological and family support and help to return to work or study. The fuller outline of care is on our Psychosis page.

Common questions
Is psychosis the same as schizophrenia?
No. Psychosis is a set of experiences, such as hallucinations and delusions, that can occur in several conditions. Schizophrenia is one of them. A psychiatrist will assess which applies.
Can someone recover from psychosis?
Many people do recover well with treatment and support, and some have a single episode. Staying with treatment and having family support improve the outlook.
The person does not think they are unwell. How do we get help?
This is common, because the experiences feel real. A relative can call us first for guidance on how to approach the person gently. Please call 112 if anyone is in danger.
Can psychosis be managed by video?
Ongoing review and medicine management can work well by video. If someone needs in-person or hospital care, your psychiatrist will say so and help you plan.
