Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder in which there are emotional disorders, inappropriate behavior, thinking disorder and last but not least the inability for leading a social life. Usually it develops in men aged 18-25 years and women aged 26-45 years. Sometimes it is inherited. It is common among people of different cultures and affects approximately one out of a hundred people in the world.

The term “Schizophrenia” is sometimes mistakenly referred to as the personality disorder. Schizophrenia leads to violation of human experience of reality, which is accompanied by the inadequacy of their behavior and confused emotional reactions. People suffering from Schizophrenia may hear voices that may contribute to the appearance of strangeness in their behavior. They usually are unable to work or maintain relationships with other people. Without proper support and treatment, people with this disease are likely to descend or cause injury to themselves. Approximately one in ten people diagnosed with “Schizophrenia” commit suicide.
