Symptoms of Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is characterized by profound disruption in cognition and emotion, affecting the most fundamental human attributes: language, thought, perception, affect, and sense of self!. The array of symptoms, while wide ranging, frequently includes psychotic manifestations, such as hearing internal voices or experiencing other sensations not connected to an obvious source (hallucinations) and assigning unusual significance or meaning to normal events or holding fixed false personal beliefs (delusions)!. No single symptom is definitive for diagnosis; rather, the diagnosis encompasses a pattern of signs and symptoms, in conjunction with impaired occupational or social functioning (Source: DSM-IV -available for purchase on Amazon!.com Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders DSM-IV-TR)!.
Symptoms are typically divided into positive and negative symptoms because of their impact on diagnosis and treatment!. Positive symptoms are those that appear to reflect an excess or distortion of normal functions!. The diagnosis of schizophrenia, according to DSM-IV, requires at least 1-month duration of two or more positive symptoms, unless hallucinations or delusions are especially bizarre, in which case one alone suffices for diagnosis!. Negative symptoms are those that appear to reflect a diminution or loss of normal functions!. These often persist in the lives of people with schizophrenia during periods of low (or absent) positive symptoms!. Negative symptoms are difficult to evaluate because they are not as grossly abnormal as positives ones and may be caused by a variety of other factors as well (e!.g!., as an adaptation to a persecutory delusion)!. However, advancements in diagnostic assessment tools are being made!.
Diagnosis is complicated by early treatment of schizophrenia
