A new campaign has been launched to raise awareness of psychosis and encourage people to seek urgent support if they are concerned about themselves or a loved one.
The campaign, organised by the mental health charity Rethink Mental Illness, launched in March. It coincided with new research from YouGov, which suggests young people aged 18-34 have the lowest levels of awareness of psychosis (76% compared to 84% for those aged 35+), even though first episodes of psychosis occur most commonly in this age group.
