Stimulant psychosis, also known as stimulant-induced psychotic disorder, is a mental disorder characterized by psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, severe paranoia, disorganized thinking, and grossly disorganized behavior. It typically occurs following an overdose or several day binge on psychostimulants (such as cocaine and methamphetamine), although it can occur in the course of stimulant therapy, particularly at higher doses.
