Schizophrenia

No. This follows the same rule as any other medical condition: no capitalization unless of a proper name, so: "cancer, schizophrenia, Graves' disease." And, while many people do capitalize it, for some reason, you can find corroboration for not doing so at the National Institute for Mental Health's website or in by checking scholarly articles on the subject.

The delusion that people are broadcasting pt inserting thoughts in your head are common to the paranoid type of schizophrenia.

This could be referring to dissociation, which is a state of mind where someone may feel like they are watching their life before their eyes through a screen, or that they don't really feel anything at all. Or maybe when they're walking down the street they feel like a ghost, that they've floated out of their body. But in psychotic terms, this is may extend to the point of a hallucination, that the person has seen or hear something that is not real, and the delusion, where they believe it is real and is happening to them, and that it might signify something when it doesn't.

Delusions, hallucinations, "flat affect", and nonsensical speech (schizophasia).

either there is a ghost/spirt/presents there or your paranoid either way get your home blessed.

You can ALWAYS be required to report for re-evaluation.

There is no specific list of symptoms for residual schizophrenia. Residual schizophrenia is most common type of schizophrenia now due to medication. It occurs when someone has had an active episode and currently do not show any symptoms of delusions, hallucinations, disorders of thought, grossly disorganized or catatonic behavior, and negative symptoms. They still are clearly not the same person they were before the schizophrenic episode had occurred and probably will have some strange behaviors.

The term schizophrenia comes from two Greek words that mean "split mind." It was observed around 1908, by a Swiss doctor named Eugen Bleuler, to describe the splitting apart of mental functions that he regarded as the central characteristic of schizophrenia.

Both of these disorders have a high genetic component. In both cases, scientists feel that it is a combination of genetics and environment which is responsible. In other words, there is a higher risk of getting one of these illnesses if you have a history of it in your family, but there are many other things which can make it worse or better. There is not a huge increase in your chances, even with a family history - identical twins of a schizophrenic person only have about a 50% chance of having it themselves, and considering that their genetic make-up is identical, that shows there is more going on than just the DNA.

Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder that involves problems with perception of reality. Autism is a developmental disorder that involves problems with theory of mind and sensory difficulties. While both disorders involve inappropriate affect (expression of emotion) and problems integrating sensory input, the disorders are completely different.

Catatonic schizophrenia.

Previous answer: "Fight Club is a movie based on a novel by Chuck Palahniuk, while schizophrenia is a mental illness. So no, they're not the same thing." This is not actually answering your question, from what I can tell. The main character in Fight Club does have a mental illness, but it is not schizophrenia. If you have not seen the movie, I do not recommend you spoil it for yourself but you can go to imdb.com or the like to see the name of the actual mental illness the main character suffers from.

No, the fictional character Sherlock Holmes is not a schizophrenic. In the recent series with Benedict Cumberbatch, Sherlock Holmes is presented as a sociopath.

edit- Not true! In the beginning of the series, he claims to be a sociopath and has many tendencies thereof, but it is later shown that he does, in fact, care. He has many deep seeded emotions and cares deeply for many people. It is, however, very likely that his is schizophrenic. He sees things that no one else sees and can fabricate entire worlds inside his own head, on top of the facts that he had difficulty socializing and reacting with proper emotional output.

A negative mental set can affect motivation and ambition.

Is it POSSIBLE? Yes. However, having one does mean necessarily you will have the other.

Schizophrenia is often confused with other illnesses. In fact, some of its symptoms are symptoms for bipolar. These mutual symptoms include paranoia, bizarre delusions, and disorganized speech and thinking. However, if auditory hallucinations are occurring frequently then it is most likely that the person is suffering from schizophrenia. On the other hand, depression is more commonly associated with bipolar disorder and is not a symptom of schizophrenia. Furthermore, schizophrenics do not have 'split personality disorder'.

Yes, schizophrenics can become dangerous if the do not take there medications. The voices and hallucinations may become much more dominant. The patient could become violent. They could become very violent with no sign whatsoever. My mother works in the hospital. She worked with a schizophrenic man, who decided he didn't want to take his medication. Soon after words, he decided to hit a woman with his car.(Yes, then he was fired) I'm not saying all schizophrenics may be violent. No. That's not the point at all. Schizophrenics on medication are just fine. I have a schizo. Friend. She has her moments here and there, but she's a great person! If schizophrenics are off med's though, they could have the tendencies to become violent.

The life issues surrounding severe mental illness of any kind can be expected to lead to circumstances with a good chance of shortening life expectancy. These can be self-harm, failure to care for physical needs, issues with the law and other people, and a host of other problems.

Schizophrenics, in particular, need professional support since their disorder is especially vulnerable to self-neglect, and their hallucination and paranoiac episodes may lead to life-threatening situations.

Because everybody deserves a fair chance at a job, and it would be unconstitutional if they didn't allow that person to do that.

Psychosocial factors are now thought to influence the expression or severity of schizophrenia, rather than cause it directly.

anxiety , seizures.

If the medication hasn't caused harm during thirty years of taking it, it is unlikely that it will begin to cause harm. Life-threatening side effects such as neuroleptic malignant syndrome generally occur during the first year of taking antipsychotic medication. Antipsychotic medication doesn't have any sort of cumulative poisonous effect, either.

Schizophrenia is not caused by emotional trauma. However, a pre-existing tendency may be triggered by such events. Schizophrenia is primarily hereditary, with a small sub-set of cases possibly being caused (or triggered) by head trauma.
