- Lara Shah -FAQ
Schizophrenia is a chronic mental health disorder that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. It can involve disruptions in perception, thought processes, emotions, and social functioning.
There is no single cause. It is believed to result from a combination of:
Genetic factors (family history)
Brain chemistry and structure (dopamine and glutamate imbalances)
Environmental factors (stress, infections, or prenatal exposures)
Treatment is usually multi-faceted, including:
Medication: Oral Medicines are the main treatment to reduce hallucinations, delusions, and disorganized thinking.
Psychotherapy: Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), supportive therapy, and social skills training.
Rehabilitation & Support: Occupational therapy, family support, and community programs to improve functioning.
Most people with schizophrenia are not violent. Risk increases only if symptoms are untreated, particularly paranoia or delusions. Early treatment and support reduce risks significantly.
Yes. Genetics play a role. Having a first-degree relative (parent or sibling) with schizophrenia increases risk, but most people with a family history do not develop the disorder. Environmental factors also contribute.
Yes. People with schizophrenia may also experience:
Anxiety or depression
Substance use disorders
Diabetes or cardiovascular disease
Obsessive-compulsive symptoms
There is no guaranteed prevention. Early intervention for prodromal or early symptoms can reduce severity and improve long-term outcomes.
Encourage them to see a mental health professional.
Offer support without judgment.
Avoid confrontation about delusions or hallucinations.
Ensure safety if they express self-harm or aggression.
Schizophrenia: Persistent psychotic symptoms (hallucinations, delusions), disorganized thinking, social withdrawal.
Bipolar disorder: Mood episodes (mania and depression) with possible brief psychotic symptoms.
A psychiatrist uses detailed assessment to distinguish between them.
100% Yes. With the right treatment and regular follow-ups, hallucinations and delusions reduce. Also, cognitive abilities like memory, focus, and mood improve gradually.
