Psychology articles - Paranoid Schizophrenia
Paul Schreber
Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is complex and a serious psychological disorder. It is a disease that makes it difficult for a person to tell the difference between real and unreal experiences, to think logically, to have normal emotional responses to others, and to behave normally in social situtations.
Experts are not exactly sure what causes schizophrenia. Some doctor´s think that the brain may not be able to process information correctly. Some thinks that genetic factors appear to play a role, as people who have family members with schizophrenia may be more likely to get the disease themselves. Some researchers believe that events in a person's environment may trigger schizophrenia. For example, problems during intrauterine development (infection) and birth may increase the risk for developing schizophrenia later in life. Psychological and social factors may also play some role in its development. However, the level of social and familial support appears to influence the course of illness and may be protective against relapse.
The most truly cause, in our clinical based point of view, is the subjects relationship to, or fundamental denial of, what´s been called "the Symbolic order" and "the Name of the Father" (see Monograph´s).
There are usualy five recognized types of schizophrenia: catatonic, paranoid, disorganized, undifferentiated, and residual. Features of schizophrenia include its typical onset before the age of 45, continuous presence of symptoms for six months or more, and deterioration from a prior level of social and occupational functioning.
People with schizophrenia can have a variety of symptoms. Usually the illness develops slowly over months or even years. At first the symptoms may not be noticed. For example, people may feel tense, may have trouble sleeping, or have trouble concentrating. They become isolated and withdrawn; they do not make or keep friends. As the illness progresses, psychotic symptoms develop:
delusions -false beliefs or thoughts with no basis in reality
hallucinations - hearing, seeing, or feeling things that are not there
disordered thinking - thoughts "jump" between completely unrelated topics; the person may talk nonsense
catatonic behavior - bizarre motor behavior marked by a decrease in reactivity to the environment, or hyperactivity that is unrelated to stimulus
flat affect - an appearance or mood that shows no emotion
No single characteristic is present in all types of schizophrenia. The risk factors include a family history of schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is thought to affect about 1% of the population worldwide. Schizophrenia appears to occur in equal rates among men and women, but women have a later onset. For this reason, males tend to account for more than half of clients in services with high proportions of young adults. Although the onset of schizophrenia is typically in young adulthood, cases of the disorder with a late onset (over 45 years) are known. Childhood-onset schizophrenia begins after five years of age and, in most cases, after relatively normal development. Childhood schizophrenia is rare and can be difficult to differentiate from other pervasive developmental disorders of childhood, such as autism.
Catatonic type:
motor disturbances
stupor
negativism
rigidity
excitement
may be unable to take care of personal needs
decreased sensitivity to painful stimulus
Paranoid type:
delusional thoughts of a persecution or grandiose nature
anxiety
anger
violence
argumentative
Disorganized type:
incoherence (not understandable)
regressive behavior
flat affect
delusions
hallucinations
inappropriate laughter
mannerisms
social withdrawal
Undifferentiated type:
may have symptoms of more than one subtype of schizophrenia
Residual type:
the prominent symptoms of the illness have abated but some features, such as hallucinations and flat affect, may remain
During an acute episode of schizophrenia, hospitalization is often required to prevent self-inflicted harm or harm to others, and to provide for the person’s basic needs such as food, rest, and hygiene.
Antipsychotic or neuroleptic medications work by changing the balances of chemicals in the brain and are used to control the symptoms of the illness. These medications are effective but are also associated with uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous side effects and unfortunately, as a result, many people do not take the medications they need. Common side effects from traditional antipsychotics (the ones that mostly control the positive symptoms of schizophrenia: hallucinations, delusions, confusion)include sedation, weight gain, and "extrapyramidal symptoms" such as muscle contractions, problems of movement and gait, and feelings of inner restlessness or "jitters". Long-term risks include a movement disorder called "tardive dyskinesia," which involves involuntary movements of the facial muscles or tongue. Newer agents known as "atypical" antipsychotics appear to have a somewhat safer and more tolerable side-effect profile and appear to effectively treat the positive as well as the negative symptoms of schizophrenia (such as depression and emotional withdrawal). They also appear to help people who have not benefited from the older traditional medications. Drug treatment is usually continuous, as relapse of symptoms is common when medication is discontinued.
Ego-supportive and problem-focused forms of psychotherapy are helpful for many individuals. Behavioral techniques such as "social skills training" can be used in a therapeutic setting, or in the client’s natural environment, to promote social and occupational functioning. Family interventions that combine support and education about schizophrenia ("psychoeducation") appear to help families cope and reduce relapse. Clients who lack family and social support may be helped by intensive case management programs that emphasize active outreach and linkage to a range of community support services.
There are many different potential outcomes of schizophrenia. Most people with schizophrenia find that their symptoms improve with medication, and some achieve substantial control of the symptoms over time. However, many others experience functional disability and are at risk for repeated acute episodes, particularly during the early stages of the illness. Supported housing, vocational rehabilitation, and other community support programs may be essential to their community tenure. People with the most severe forms of this disorder may remain too disabled to live independently, requiring group homes or other long-term, structured living environments.
Noncompliance with medication will frequently lead to a relapse of symptoms.
Physical illness occurs at high rates among people with schizophrenia due to psychiatric treatment itself (such as side effects from medication) and living conditions associated with chronic disability. These may go undetected because of poor access to medical care and because of difficulties communicating with health-care providers.
Persons with schizophrenia have a high risk of developing a coexisting substance abuse problem, and use of alcohol and/or drugs increases the risk of relapse.
Call for your treatment doctor if:
voices are telling you to hurt yourself.
you are unable to care for yourself.
you are feeling hopeless and overwhelmed.
you feel like you cannot leave the house.
you are seeing things that aren’t really there.

hallucinations - hearing, seeing, or feeling things that are not there
disordered thinking - thoughts "jump" between completely unrelated topics; the person may talk nonsense
catatonic behavior - bizarre motor behavior marked by a decrease in reactivity to the environment, or hyperactivity that is unrelated to stimulus
flat affect - an appearance or mood that shows no emotion
No single characteristic is present in all types of schizophrenia. The risk factors include a family history of schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is thought to affect about 1% of the population worldwide. Schizophrenia appears to occur in equal rates among men and women, but women have a later onset. For this reason, males tend to account for more than half of clients in services with high proportions of young adults. Although the onset of schizophrenia is typically in young adulthood, cases of the disorder with a late onset (over 45 years) are known. Childhood-onset schizophrenia begins after five years of age and, in most cases, after relatively normal development. Childhood schizophrenia is rare and can be difficult to differentiate from other pervasive developmental disorders of childhood, such as autism.
Catatonic type:
motor disturbances
stupor
negativism
rigidity
excitement
may be unable to take care of personal needs
decreased sensitivity to painful stimulus
Paranoid type:
delusional thoughts of a persecution or grandiose nature
anxiety
anger
violence
argumentative
Disorganized type:
incoherence (not understandable)
regressive behavior
flat affect
delusions
hallucinations
inappropriate laughter
mannerisms
social withdrawal
Undifferentiated type:
may have symptoms of more than one subtype of schizophrenia
Residual type:
the prominent symptoms of the illness have abated but some features, such as hallucinations and flat affect, may remain
During an acute episode of schizophrenia, hospitalization is often required to prevent self-inflicted harm or harm to others, and to provide for the person’s basic needs such as food, rest, and hygiene.
Antipsychotic or neuroleptic medications work by changing the balances of chemicals in the brain and are used to control the symptoms of the illness. These medications are effective but are also associated with uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous side effects and unfortunately, as a result, many people do not take the medications they need. Common side effects from traditional antipsychotics (the ones that mostly control the positive symptoms of schizophrenia: hallucinations, delusions, confusion)include sedation, weight gain, and "extrapyramidal symptoms" such as muscle contractions, problems of movement and gait, and feelings of inner restlessness or "jitters". Long-term risks include a movement disorder called "tardive dyskinesia," which involves involuntary movements of the facial muscles or tongue. Newer agents known as "atypical" antipsychotics appear to have a somewhat safer and more tolerable side-effect profile and appear to effectively treat the positive as well as the negative symptoms of schizophrenia (such as depression and emotional withdrawal). They also appear to help people who have not benefited from the older traditional medications. Drug treatment is usually continuous, as relapse of symptoms is common when medication is discontinued.
Ego-supportive and problem-focused forms of psychotherapy are helpful for many individuals. Behavioral techniques such as "social skills training" can be used in a therapeutic setting, or in the client’s natural environment, to promote social and occupational functioning. Family interventions that combine support and education about schizophrenia ("psychoeducation") appear to help families cope and reduce relapse. Clients who lack family and social support may be helped by intensive case management programs that emphasize active outreach and linkage to a range of community support services.
There are many different potential outcomes of schizophrenia. Most people with schizophrenia find that their symptoms improve with medication, and some achieve substantial control of the symptoms over time. However, many others experience functional disability and are at risk for repeated acute episodes, particularly during the early stages of the illness. Supported housing, vocational rehabilitation, and other community support programs may be essential to their community tenure. People with the most severe forms of this disorder may remain too disabled to live independently, requiring group homes or other long-term, structured living environments.
Noncompliance with medication will frequently lead to a relapse of symptoms.
Physical illness occurs at high rates among people with schizophrenia due to psychiatric treatment itself (such as side effects from medication) and living conditions associated with chronic disability. These may go undetected because of poor access to medical care and because of difficulties communicating with health-care providers.
Persons with schizophrenia have a high risk of developing a coexisting substance abuse problem, and use of alcohol and/or drugs increases the risk of relapse.
Call for your treatment doctor if:
voices are telling you to hurt yourself.
you are unable to care for yourself.
you are feeling hopeless and overwhelmed.
you feel like you cannot leave the house.
you are seeing things that aren’t really there.

During an acute episode of schizophrenia, hospitalization is often required to prevent self-inflicted harm or harm to others, and to provide for the person’s basic needs such as food, rest, and hygiene.
Antipsychotic or neuroleptic medications work by changing the balances of chemicals in the brain and are used to control the symptoms of the illness. These medications are effective but are also associated with uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous side effects and unfortunately, as a result, many people do not take the medications they need. Common side effects from traditional antipsychotics (the ones that mostly control the positive symptoms of schizophrenia: hallucinations, delusions, confusion)include sedation, weight gain, and "extrapyramidal symptoms" such as muscle contractions, problems of movement and gait, and feelings of inner restlessness or "jitters". Long-term risks include a movement disorder called "tardive dyskinesia," which involves involuntary movements of the facial muscles or tongue. Newer agents known as "atypical" antipsychotics appear to have a somewhat safer and more tolerable side-effect profile and appear to effectively treat the positive as well as the negative symptoms of schizophrenia (such as depression and emotional withdrawal). They also appear to help people who have not benefited from the older traditional medications. Drug treatment is usually continuous, as relapse of symptoms is common when medication is discontinued.
Ego-supportive and problem-focused forms of psychotherapy are helpful for many individuals. Behavioral techniques such as "social skills training" can be used in a therapeutic setting, or in the client’s natural environment, to promote social and occupational functioning. Family interventions that combine support and education about schizophrenia ("psychoeducation") appear to help families cope and reduce relapse. Clients who lack family and social support may be helped by intensive case management programs that emphasize active outreach and linkage to a range of community support services.
There are many different potential outcomes of schizophrenia. Most people with schizophrenia find that their symptoms improve with medication, and some achieve substantial control of the symptoms over time. However, many others experience functional disability and are at risk for repeated acute episodes, particularly during the early stages of the illness. Supported housing, vocational rehabilitation, and other community support programs may be essential to their community tenure. People with the most severe forms of this disorder may remain too disabled to live independently, requiring group homes or other long-term, structured living environments.
Noncompliance with medication will frequently lead to a relapse of symptoms.
Physical illness occurs at high rates among people with schizophrenia due to psychiatric treatment itself (such as side effects from medication) and living conditions associated with chronic disability. These may go undetected because of poor access to medical care and because of difficulties communicating with health-care providers.
Persons with schizophrenia have a high risk of developing a coexisting substance abuse problem, and use of alcohol and/or drugs increases the risk of relapse.
Call for your treatment doctor if:
voices are telling you to hurt yourself.
you are unable to care for yourself.
you are feeling hopeless and overwhelmed.
you feel like you cannot leave the house.
you are seeing things that aren’t really there.

Newer agents known as "atypical" antipsychotics appear to have a somewhat safer and more tolerable side-effect profile and appear to effectively treat the positive as well as the negative symptoms of schizophrenia (such as depression and emotional withdrawal). They also appear to help people who have not benefited from the older traditional medications. Drug treatment is usually continuous, as relapse of symptoms is common when medication is discontinued.
Ego-supportive and problem-focused forms of psychotherapy are helpful for many individuals. Behavioral techniques such as "social skills training" can be used in a therapeutic setting, or in the client’s natural environment, to promote social and occupational functioning. Family interventions that combine support and education about schizophrenia ("psychoeducation") appear to help families cope and reduce relapse. Clients who lack family and social support may be helped by intensive case management programs that emphasize active outreach and linkage to a range of community support services.
There are many different potential outcomes of schizophrenia. Most people with schizophrenia find that their symptoms improve with medication, and some achieve substantial control of the symptoms over time. However, many others experience functional disability and are at risk for repeated acute episodes, particularly during the early stages of the illness. Supported housing, vocational rehabilitation, and other community support programs may be essential to their community tenure. People with the most severe forms of this disorder may remain too disabled to live independently, requiring group homes or other long-term, structured living environments.
Noncompliance with medication will frequently lead to a relapse of symptoms.
Physical illness occurs at high rates among people with schizophrenia due to psychiatric treatment itself (such as side effects from medication) and living conditions associated with chronic disability. These may go undetected because of poor access to medical care and because of difficulties communicating with health-care providers.
Persons with schizophrenia have a high risk of developing a coexisting substance abuse problem, and use of alcohol and/or drugs increases the risk of relapse.
Call for your treatment doctor if:
voices are telling you to hurt yourself.
you are unable to care for yourself.
you are feeling hopeless and overwhelmed.
you feel like you cannot leave the house.
you are seeing things that aren’t really there.

Undifferentiated type:
may have symptoms of more than one subtype of schizophrenia
Residual type:
the prominent symptoms of the illness have abated but some features, such as hallucinations and flat affect, may remain
During an acute episode of schizophrenia, hospitalization is often required to prevent self-inflicted harm or harm to others, and to provide for the person’s basic needs such as food, rest, and hygiene.
Antipsychotic or neuroleptic medications work by changing the balances of chemicals in the brain and are used to control the symptoms of the illness. These medications are effective but are also associated with uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous side effects and unfortunately, as a result, many people do not take the medications they need. Common side effects from traditional antipsychotics (the ones that mostly control the positive symptoms of schizophrenia: hallucinations, delusions, confusion)include sedation, weight gain, and "extrapyramidal symptoms" such as muscle contractions, problems of movement and gait, and feelings of inner restlessness or "jitters".
