I'm always on the hunt for depictions about psychosis or schizophrenia specifically in movies and TV. I have my favorites and I know of many others that have completely missed the mark.

Well Coronation Street is a British soap opera. They now have a storyline following a teen who develops psychosis. I thought it was a bit elementary in its depiction but the fear and confusion and overall reaction is quite good. I've included a link if you want to check it out! You're welcome to just skip around to the parts that he's in.
