my understanding is if you think your psychotic, then your not. A psychotic person would never think they were.

You probably won't know because your response to a certain stimulus will be your brains natural response and will feel right to you. Unless you have a severe case of some psychosis you will not recognise those tendencies. The best thing to do is be aware of those who are around you most and their perception of you. Though you should not let others perception affect you, you should at least know how you are perceived by others since life is all about dealing with people.
Psychotic is probably not defined since it is more of a slang term for someone experiencing psychosis or psychotic tendencies (i.e. suicidal, phobias, delusions, etc.)
Most people perceived as psychotic are able to overcome their problems on their own but the attention of a psychiatrist or a close friend never hurts.

You would not know it if you were truly psychotic. Psychosis generally has a degree of violent reaction to perceptions or hallucinations. There is no real understanding of right or wrong. This condition will allow the passing of lie detector tests. The shooting of a neighbor who had Satan over for dinner, the murder / suicide of a family over a late water bill, any number of things might precipitate violent reaction in someone suffering an episode, but would seem inconsequential or illogical by an outsider. Think it's possible for you? Talk to a professional, soon.

psychosis is a disorder that impairs a persons ability to know what is real and what isn't. Psychotics have a "break with reality" if you will. This usually means that this person has hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that arent there) or dellusions (believing things that are out of touch with reality). to know if you are psychotic you need to see a psychiatrist.

Do you people look at you like you are crazy all the time? You might be. Psychotic means that you have extreme mental illness.

You can't ..unless someone notices it.
And for definition, contact the psychiatrist...don't lend your ears to the layman.
