Don't confuse Schizophrenia with 'multiple personality disorder'. the two are not the same. Schizophrenia can be described as dissociative disorder... where the sufferer may disconnect from reality. they hear things, see things, etc that aren't there.
Schizophrenia is a mental illness involving voices in a sufferer's head which seem very real, and in some cases these voices can urge the sufferer to kill themselves or others. It can also have other symptoms and the voices do not always talk about murder or suicide.
Paul Eugen Bleuler first coined the term "Schizophrenia."Schizophrenia means "split mind" from Greek terminology. This however does not refer to the person having one or more minds such as with Dissociative Personality Disorder. But refers to a split in the mind of the sufferer where their own personal reality is split from our own. Hence they are mostly or only aware of their personal reality, and not the universal reality the majority of us are aware of.
Schizophrenia is partly genetic- one out of ten people who have at least one schizophrenic relative also have schizophrenia (compared to one out of one hundred people in general). About one out of two people whose identical twins have schizophrenia also have schizophrenia. However, schizophrenia is not completely genetic. If schizophrenia was completely genetic, everyone who had an identical twin with schizophrenia would also have schizophrenia. This is not the case. Like I said before, about 50% of people whose identical twins have schizophrenia also have schizophrenia. There are environmental as well as genetic factors to schizophrenia.

Sometimes. It depends on what the loss is, how important it is to the sufferer, and whether it affects the sufferer afterwards or not.

A person can be diagnosed with Schizophrenia without suffering from hallucinations. They can also be diagnosed without suffering from delusions, but it is much rarer to find a sufferer who does not suffer from delusions (normal found in sufferers of the Catatonic subtype. Catatonic subtype sufferers can also suffer from delusions as well, they are not restricted to one particular subtype).
