no this is a name given to a broad range of mental illnesses which exhibit certain symptoms(of which there can be many) which were initially diagnosed as schyzophreinia. It is not a chronic disesease as it usually occurs in short "breaks" and results in the sufferer only sometimes exhibiting signs of the disease. It is said that not one case of this "schyzophrenia" is ever exactly alike and the symptoms they display are relative to the person.
