About Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a severe and debilitating psychosis often characterized by acute episodes of delusions (false beliefs that cannot be corrected by reason), hallucinations (usually in the form of non-existent voices) and long- term impairments such as diminished emotion, lack of interest and depressive signs and symptoms, such as hopelessness and suicidal thoughts.(1) It is usually associated with a disruption in social and family relationships. Schizophrenia is the most common severe mental illness. Twenty four million people suffer from schizophrenia worldwide. (2,3)
