Schizophrenia
Not Sure if You Need Help?
Schizophrenia Symptoms May Include:
Personalized Treatments
Psychiatric Diagnosis
Schizophrenia most typically first presents symptoms in the late teens or early adulthood. The diagnosis can be complicated at this age as this is a period in which many individuals experiment with or regularly use drugs. Marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine and other drugs can provoke psychosis. Careful psychiatric evaluation and neuropsychological evaluation are important in making an accurate diagnosis.
Medication
Antipsychotic drugs are typically used for the management of schizophrenia and other severe mental illnesses. Some patients, do not respond to medications, and a few may seem not to need them. Since it is difficult to predict which patients will fall into what groups, it is essential to have each individual treatment plan for long-term follow-up, so that the treatment can be adjusted and problems are addressed in a timely manner.
Family Therapy and Education:
Research has consistently shown that people with schizophrenia and other severe mental illnesses who have involved families fare better than those who battle the condition alone. If possible, all family members should be involved in the long term treatment plan.
Individual Psychotherapy:
This involves regular sessions between the patient and a psychotherapist focused on past or current problems, thoughts, feelings or relationships. Through this contact with a trained professional, people with schizophrenia become able to understand more about the illness, to learn about themselves and to better handle the struggles of their daily lives. They become better able to differentiate between what is real and, by contrast, what is not and can acquire beneficial problem-solving skills.
