Schizophrenia

A serious mental disorder affecting how a person thinks, feels, and behaves, often involving hallucinations and delusions.

Schizophrenia is a chronic psychotic disorder with positive symptoms (hallucinations, delusions), negative symptoms (flat affect, withdrawal), and cognitive impairment. Antipsychotic medications are the mainstay of treatment, with second-generation agents preferred for their improved tolerability.
