Abstract:
COVID-19 disease can be associated with several health-related consequences that are directly or indirectly related to infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Acute psychiatric illnesses in the setting of COVID-19 infection are one of the reported consequences. In this case report, we discuss acute onset of psychosis in a young patient that we believe was related to post-COVID-19 infection. Some findings in the EEG in this patient, we believe, were related to use of antipsychotic medications and that caused challenges in the diagnosis. It is important to be aware of post-COVID-19 psychosis and challenges that may be encountered in the workup.
