Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, she has either acute stress reaction or acute psychosis. Acute stress reaction improves with benzodiazepine only and could happen anytime due to stress. There is nothing to worry about in that case. In psychosis, patient needs continuous antipsychotic drug like risperidone. That could be hereditary. In that case, you need proper consultation of a psychiatrist. Rest, you can consult a psychiatrist and in case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
