psychosis-like symptoms

We don't know if we are dealing here with a "randpsychose", in the strict sense of the term. All we know is that XXX arrived at the clinic with "randpsychotische verschijnselen", that is symptoms that are similar to symptoms of a psychosis
XXX was not diagnosed as psychotic but as near-psychotic.
He arrived in a near-psychotic, psychosis-like or psychotiform state.
