How does paranoid schizophrenia differ from disorganized schizophrenia?

Disorganized Schizophrenia is the most common type of schizophrenia, causing a person to think illogically. It leads to uncontrolled actions making it hard for them to do normal daily activities such as eat, or bathe. They have a hard time expressing their thoughts and understanding what others are trying to say. Paranoid schizophrenia is drastically different from disorganized schizophrenia in many ways. Those who suffer from paranoid schizophrenia can still complete normal daily tasks by themselves. They can still concentrate well and have good use of their memory, unlike those with the disorganized form of the disease. Those with paranoid schizophrenia though suffer from delusions of the senses. Many people assume that people just "see things" but they also hear, smell and can feel things that aren't actually there. They also often suffer from extreme emotions such as jealousy, sadness, happiness, sexual desire and more. All types of Schizophrenia can be treated with medication and therapy but no cure has been found.
