> Aside from the obvious (brain tumor, head trama, drugs) what are some of the more esoteric biological causes for psychotic symptoms? My fifteen year old son had a sudden onset of psychosis. Drugs and tumor have been ruled out, and he's being treated with Risperdal, which is having limited success. I'm concerned that they're treating the symptoms of an underlying biological issue that they haven't found. Any thoughts of what else we might be looking for?
