    Schizophrenia

    WHAT IS IT?
    Schizophrenia is a serious mental illness that can make
    people feel like they have lost touch with the world.

    SYMPTOMS AND CAUSES

    Some symptoms can be things like delusions, hallucinations,


    physical and mental disorder, and psychosis. The causes
    could be childhood trauma, use of cannabis, genes, or other
    environmental factors.

    STATISTICS
    Surprisingly, this disorder only affects less than 1% of the
    population, and is one of the worst mental disorders to have to
    deal with.

    TREATMENTS
    Even though some people think that schizophrenia is
    not treatable, there are many things that can prevent
    the psychotic events that this disorder can bring.
    Medication, psychosocial rehabilitation, and
    family/friend support can all help the person with
    schizophrenia to lead a mostly normal life.

    Fun Fact: 10% of people with


    schizophrenia are most likely to
    commit suicide or suffer an
    addiction problem.
