The following are the symptoms of schizophrenia. It is a
severe and chronic mental illness that affects how a person feels, thinks, and acts.
Individuals with schizophrenia may appear like they have lost touch with
reality. Although schizophrenia is not as common as other mental disorders, the
indications can be very disabling. Other symptoms include distorted thoughts,
hallucinations, and moods of fright and paranoia. Psychiatrists assess
symptoms, tests, and medical history, and prescribe medications and
psychotherapy for treatment.
