| dc.description.abstract | The research focuses on a mental illness called schizophrenia, that can be best described as an illness characterized by a disruption in the connection between cognition,emotion, and behavior. This can lead to distorted perceptions, inappropriate actions, emotions, withdrawal from reality, interpersonal relationships into fantasy and delusion as well as a sense of mental confusion. This study explains how the disorder affects one’slife and it also sheds light on the symptoms experienced by the victims. People who experience significant stress or trauma during early childhood or adolescence as well as those with a family history of schizophrenia are more likely to develop the illness. Schizophrenia onset typically varies by gender, with men usually experiencing it betweenthe ages of 15 and 25, while women tend to develop it between 25 and 35 years old. Bothgenders are equally affected by this disorder. The study raises awareness regarding the stigma associated with schizophrenia, and how the media portrays negative and stereotypical versions of schizophrenic patients which leads to discrimination and prejudice. Effective therapy for schizophrenia frequently calls for a long-term, all-encompassing strategy that attends to the patient's wider social, emotional, and physical requirements in addition to the disease's primary symptoms. Schizophrenic patients can significantly improve their quality of life and capacity to contribute to society with the right care. | |
