No, in psychosis people can have delusions and/or hallucinations. Basically psychosis is when you lose touch with reality. I have hallucinations daily, but I'm in touch with reality. I can drive my car, go grocery shopping, go to college, but I still hallucinate. In psychosis people are not very functional and often require hospitalization where as I do not.
