Psychosis is a term describing mental health symptoms including hallucinations, delusions, formal thought disorder, and negative symptoms. Psychosis is a broad term, which encompasses a range of diagnoses. These include schizophrenia, substance-induced psychosis, brief reactive psychosis, post partum psychosis, schizophreniform disorder, schizoaffective disorder to name just a few. These disorders have the presence of psychotic symptoms as a common feature. However, the specific diagnoses are differentiated according to a variety of features such as lengbth of illness, association with mood, association with drug use or stress, etc. So, there is not another name for 'psychosis', but there are a range of terms that people use to more specifically name types of psychotic illness. Sometimes people use these terms interchangeably with psychosis - even though this is strictly not correct. (As an analogy, consider the term cancer - like psychosis, cancer is an umbrella term covering a range of more specific types such as breast cancer, bone cancer, ovarian cancer etc).
