Dear mam,
Psychosis is a disorder of thinking characterised by delusions (firm and fixed false thoughts), hallucinations (perceptions of sound/vision/sensation without a stimulus) and disorganised behavior (poor hygiene habits, odd dressing etc.)
Schizophrenia is a type of psychosis, one of the severest variety and has its own criteria for diagnosis.
Pls feel free to ask the next question and I shall be glad to answer them.
