8. Disorganized Thoughts and Speech
A person with psychosis may have difficulty thinking straight and speaking coherently at times. They might struggle to express their thoughts. Disorganized thoughts and speech are among the hallmarks of psychosis.
A person who experiences this symptom may frequently lose their train of thought mid-conversation. Random words may find their way into the person’s speech or they may become completely incoherent. In fact, psychosis is, by definition, a thought disorder.
