Well, a regular break is when you relax and take it easy for a little while. For example, I am taking a regular break right now while I enjoy a sandwich and read TD for a moment or two.

A psychotic break is just like a regular break except instead of relaxing, you do something completely insane like strip naked in public, hurl feces at others, light buildings on fire, etc.

I take those too sometimes but this one is just a regular old break.

Hope that helps you.

With me it was panic attacks that rapidly got worse. Derealization and paranoia.
