About Schizophrenia Multiple Symptoms

Schizophrenia, a brain disorder that affects the way a person thinks, acts, expresses emotions, perceives reality and relates to the others.

Schizophrenia is a term given to a complex group of mental disorders. There are four basic subtypes of schizophrenia: paranoid schizophrenia, disorganized schizophrenia, catatonic schizophrenia and undifferentiated schizophrenia.

People with schizophrenia may have symptoms involving changes in ability and personality, and they may display different kinds of behavior at different times. Sometimes is very difficult to find out if a person has schizophrenia or not, or if it is suffering from other mental disease. And this is happening because the symptoms can be fewer and they might not be specific.

The most common symptoms of schizophrenia can be grouped into three categories: positive symptoms (delusions or false beliefs and hallucinations- they hear voices), negative symptoms (no interest for life, friends ,work and other activities, no emotions, withdrawal) and disorganized symptoms- memory problems, comunication difficulties, obsessive occupations, etc .
