The data covered in this report come from two sources: a survey which was carried out in 2000 and is a repeat of an earlier survey of adults living in private households, and a supplementary sample of people with psychosis identified through GP records held on the General Practice Rsearch Database. Overall, 91% of this sample of people with a psychotic illness were receiving some form of treatment, either medication or some form of counselling or therapy. Over half of this sample of people with psychotic disorder (56%) reported difficulties with one or more activities of daily living (ADL). Most of these (49% of the whole sample) said that they needed help to overcome at least one of these difficulties. In this sample of people with a psychotic disorder, a very high proportion of people, 70%, were economically inactive. Just over a quarter (27%) were in paid employment, half of them full time and half part time. A large proportion of this sample of people with a psychotic illness were, or had been, smokers. Among this sample, 27% of respondents had an AUDIT score of 8 or more, that is, they were found to have a hazardous level of drinking in the year before interview. Over two-thirds (70%) of this sample of people with a psychotic illness had thought about suicide at some time in their lives and 45% had attempted suicide. In addition, 21% had harmed themselves without intending to commit suicide.
