Defining schizophrenia & other psychotic disorders

What are they? Disorders characterized by psychosis, a condition that causes difficulty with perceiving reality as it is

What causes them? The exact cause is unknown, but genetics, brain chemistry, stress, and psychoactive drugs may all play a role

How common are they? Roughly 1% of people worldwide suffer from schizophrenia, ranking it among the top 10 global disability causes

What are the effects? Hallucinations, delusions, disorganized speech, and disorganized or catatonic behavior, reduced motivation and expressiveness

The ABCs of Schizophrenia & Psychotic Disorders
Psychotic disorders like schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder interfere with the way a person thinks and behaves, causing them to struggle to discern reality from false perceptions and beliefs. This often results in the individual developing persistent delusions about themselves or others. Treatment usually includes antipsychotic medications, and we work with clients to achieve the highest levels of functioning and independence.

Schizophrenia affects approximately 2.8 million adults in the US.
