Alzheimer's with psychosis refers to the presence of psychotic symptoms in individuals with Alzheimer's disease. Psychosis involves a detachment from reality and can manifest as hallucinations, which are sensory experiences without a corresponding stimulus (such as seeing or hearing things that aren't there), and delusions, which are false beliefs that are firmly held despite evidence to the contrary. Psychotic symptoms may also include paranoia, agitation, and aggression. These symptoms can significantly impact the individual's perception of reality, behavior, and overall quality of life, often adding to the complexity of managing the disease for both patients and caregivers.
