The Disease Schizophrenia by Missyajoke(f): 8:11pm On May 21, 2020
Good evening everyone I'm writing about Schizophrenia, most mad people we see, most people conclude that it was money ritual that made them mad which is wrong. Some people are suffering from mental illness. That family and friends refuse to pay attention to Its when it becomes chronic such people are rushed to a psychiatric hospital. Schizophrenia may occur from trauma, stress. That Girl that was raped in your area instead of people to bring her close and encourage are you not part of those calling her ashewo, the word ashewo sinks to her memory and its because of being called ashewo she became an ashewo.All these words if care is not taken can degenerate into mental illness for the girl. When you see someone that was raped or experiencing trauma the best you can do is to encourage take them to a psychologist . I'll start with schizophrenia


The Disease Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder in which people interpret reality abnormally. It result in some combination of hallucinations, delusions, and extremely disordered thinking and behavior that impairs daily functioning, and can be disabling.

Causes

It's not known what causes schizophrenia, but researchers believe that a combination of genetics, brain chemistry and environment contributes to development of the disorder.

Symptoms

Early symptoms of schizophrenia may seem rather ordinary and could be explained by a number of other factors. This includes socializing less often with friends, trouble sleeping, irritability, or a drop in grades. arning signs that psychosis may be imminent include:5

1. Seeing, hearing, or tasting things that others do not.
2. Suspiciousness and a general fear of others’ intentions.
3. Persistent, unusual thoughts or beliefs.
4. Difficulty thinking clearly.
5. Withdrawing from family or friends.
6. A significant decline in self-care.
Treatment
1. Psychotherapy also plays an important role in the treatment of schizophrenia.
2. Cognitive behavioral therapy has been shown to help patients develop and retain social skills, alleviate comorbid anxiety and depression symptoms, cope with trauma in their past, improve relationships with family and friends, and support occupational recovery.
People with schizophrenia require lifelong treatment. Displaying all these symptoms doesn’t necessarily indicate the presence of schizophrenia, but these are indications that a mental health evaluation is advised.
