Doctors say rare COVID psychosis case is indicative of increase in post-COVID mental health issues
"I could not find my way back. I literally cannot find my way back home, said Hadyne Wilson of Chatsworth.
For food, she relied on handouts. Wilson had no history of mental health issues until she was hospitalized with COVID-19 several months before her disappearance. At that point, her doctors say she experienced something extremely rare: COVID psychosis. "Maybe they were in a hospital for a prolonged amount of time. And developed a level of anxiety or even what we call delirium," he said.
Gee said researchers are working to understand the cause, but scientists believe brain inflammation plays a role. The good news for Wilson is that these symptoms can be resolved.
