    Simplex schizophrenia is a rare form of schizophrenia characterized by a gradual decline in functioning without prominent psychotic symptoms like delusions or hallucinations. It typically emerges during puberty and is marked by social withdrawal, blunted emotions, and loss of motivation. There is no definitive medical test and diagnosis relies on clinical evaluation of progressive negative symptoms. Treatment involves psychotherapy, social support, and antipsychotic medication which can help manage symptoms and slow functional decline. Left untreated, simplex schizophrenia can significantly impair quality of life.
