HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that she may have a combination, psychosis can sometimes be combined with mood disorders such as depression or anxiety or mania.
She would need to be screened and assessed with the criteria for each possible diagnosis to determine the nature of her mental state.
It would be best to do this as soon as possible so that she can receive treatment.
I hope this helps
