Can mindfulness help prevent psychosis? A trial for young adults
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether mindfulness training can help young people at high risk for psychosis avoid developing a full psychotic disorder. If you are between 18 and 30 and have early signs of psychosis, this program might be a way to get support and learn skills to stay well.
