Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a chronic and severe mental disorder that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. It is characterized by a combination of positive symptoms (such as hallucinations and delusions), negative symptoms (such as reduced motivation and emotional expression), and cognitive impairments. At Kibun Health, we understand the challenges faced by individuals with schizophrenia and offer comprehensive support to help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being.

Symptoms

Schizophrenia symptoms can be categorized into three main groups:

  1. Positive Symptoms:
    • Hallucinations: Sensing things that are not based on external stimuli, most commonly auditory hallucinations (hearing voices) but can also include visual, tactile, olfactory, or gustatory hallucinations.
    • Delusions: Holding fixed, false beliefs that are not grounded in reality. These may include persecutory delusions (belief of being targeted or spied on) or grandiose delusions (belief of having exceptional powers or importance).
    • Disorganized Thinking and Speech: Exhibiting fragmented or incoherent thought patterns or speech.
  2. Negative Symptoms:
    • Reduced Emotional Expression: Limited range of emotions, appearing flat or unresponsive.
    • Avolition: Reduced motivation or ability to initiate and sustain goal-directed activities.
    • Anhedonia: Decreased ability to experience pleasure or enjoyment.
    • Social Withdrawal: Decreased interest in social interactions and a preference for solitude.
  3. Cognitive Symptoms:
    • Impairments in attention, memory, executive functions, and information processing speed. These can lead to difficulties with planning, problem-solving, and maintaining focus.

Types of Schizophrenia

Paranoid Schizophrenia

Paranoid schizophrenia is characterized by prominent delusions and auditory hallucinations. Individuals with this subtype often experience persecutory or grandiose delusions and may exhibit a heightened sense of suspicion or hostility towards others.

Disorganized Schizophrenia (Hebephrenic Schizophrenia)

Disorganized schizophrenia is marked by disorganized thinking, speech, and behavior. Individuals may exhibit incoherent speech, inappropriate emotional responses, and difficulty organizing thoughts and activities.

Catatonic Schizophrenia

Catatonic schizophrenia involves disturbances in movement and behavior. Individuals may exhibit immobility, extreme rigidity, repetitive movements, or bizarre postures. They may also experience periods of excessive excitement or agitation.

Undifferentiated Schizophrenia

Undifferentiated schizophrenia refers to cases that do not fit neatly into the above categories or exhibit a mix of symptoms from different subtypes. It is characterized by a broad range of symptoms without a dominant feature.
