Extractions: back Schizophrenia What is schizophrenia? Schizophrenia is a devastating brain disorder that affects approximately 2.2 million American adults, or 1.1 percent of the population age 18 and older. Schizophrenia interferes with a person's ability to think clearly, to distinguish reality from fantasy, to manage emotions, make decisions, and relate to others. The first signs of schizophrenia typically emerge in the teenage years or early twenties. Most people with schizophrenia suffer chronically or episodically throughout their lives, and are often stigmatized by lack of public understanding about the disease. Schizophrenia is not caused by bad parenting or personal weakness. A person with schizophrenia does not have a "split personality," and almost all people with schizophrenia are not dangerous or violent towards others when they are receiving treatment. The World Health Organization has identified schizophrenia as one of the ten most debilitating diseases affecting human beings. What are the symptoms of schizophrenia?

http://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/schiz.html

Extractions: Schizophrenia First, let's discuss what schizophrenia is not. People who have schizophrenia do NOT have multiple personalities. In 1911, Eugen Bleuler, first used the word "schizophrenia." Although the word schizophrenia does come from the Greek words meaning "split" and "mind," people with schizophrenia do not have split personalities. This misunderstanding has caused many people to misuse the term schizophrenia. The "split mind" refers to the way that people with schizophrenia are split off from reality; they cannot tell what is real and what is not real. Contents of this Page References Schizophrenia is one of the most common mental illnesses. About 1 of every 100 people (1% of the population) is affected by schizophrenia. This disorder is found throughout the world and in all races and cultures. Schizophrenia affects men and women in equal numbers, although on average, men appear to develop schizophrenia earlier than women. Generally, men show the first signs of schizophrenia in their mid 20s and women show the first signs in their late 20s. Schizophrenia has a tremendous cost to society, estimated at $32.5 billion per year in the US (statistic from Brain Facts , Society for Neuroscience, 2002).

Psychiatry Anti-Psychiatry Re-visited
David Coopers' discoveries in psychodynamics of schizophrenia and his criticisms of psychiatry.
http://home.att.net/~esetz/

Extractions: To understand Anti-Psychiatry one has to first understand Psychiatry. Psychiatry is primarily a social institution which removes from society the "mentally ill and attempts to subdue their symptoms using drugs. Patinets are diagnosed, labeled and druged. Emphasis is on "Normalisation". The suppression of difference, originality and vision - Conformism - making obediant robots that do not create anxiety in others. David Coopers key discovery was that the Schizophrenic condition is the result of a "significant inward voyage". By this he means the individual looking inwards - searching for what is wrong with himself or why he is the way he is. In 1974 L.R. Hubbard used the term introspection for this. In 1925 Sigmund Freud discovered the other dynamic involved - regression. Regression can be defined as returning to a former state. In fact regression is not limited to this life but includes past lives. While regressed the individual re-experiences past memories as if they are now and reacts to current impulses as he would of then. Personality development is reversed.

What is schizophrenia? schizophrenia is a chronic, severe, and disabling brain disease. Approximately 1 percent of the population
http://www.medicinenet.com/schizophrenia/article.htm

Extractions: Schizophrenia is a chronic, severe, and disabling brain disease. Approximately 1 percent of the population develops schizophrenia during their lifetime - more than 2 million Americans suffer from the illness in a given year. Although schizophrenia affects men and women with equal frequency, the disorder often appears earlier in men, usually in the late teens or early twenties, than in women, who are generally affected in the twenties to early thirties. People with schizophrenia often suffer terrifying symptoms such as hearing internal voices not heard by others, or believing that other people are reading their minds, controlling their thoughts, or plotting to harm them. These symptoms may leave them fearful and withdrawn. Their speech and behavior can be so disorganized that they may be incomprehensible or frightening to others. Available treatments can relieve many symptoms, but most people with schizophrenia continue to suffer some symptoms throughout their lives; it has been estimated that no more than one in five individuals recovers completely. This is a time of hope for people with schizophrenia and their families. Research is gradually leading to new and safer medications and unraveling the complex causes of the disease. Scientists are using many approaches from the study of molecular
Schizo-Affective Disorder
A personal account of a mental health illness similar to schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
http://www.schizo.contactbox.co.uk/

Extractions: SCHIZO-AFFECTIVE DISORDER: MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE A personal account of a mental health illness with similarities to schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder BACKGROUND * SCHOOL LIFE * SIXTH FORM * EARLY ADULT LIFE ... POEM ABOUT DEPRESSION BACKGROUND - SCHOOL LIFE When I was 11 years old I left junior school and went to Kingshurst Comprehensive. I was the only person from my junior school to go to this comprehensive. This was the first stage in my isolation. While at the comprehensive I was never myself and acted the clown in class. On top of this, when I was 11 or 12, my dad found out that my mother was seeing another man who she had met on holiday in Spain. They did not divorce but the atmosphere at home became more and more strained over time. When I was 15 I went on a school trip to France and ended up going out with a girl called Karen. She was 13 and yet far more experienced than me. We had a great time but it did not last. On coming back to school I felt uncomfortable about going out with someone younger than myself.. A week after the French trip I went on a geography field trip in Wales. Almost by accident, I ended up going out with Catherine who I had liked for some time. On returning from the trip I ran into Karen who quite rightly gave me a hard time and made me feel really bad about myself. I carried on going with Catherine for a few weeks but things did not work out and I decided to call things off. I phoned up Karen and told her about it. I hoped we could get together but she did not want to know.

http://www.med.jhu.edu/schizophrenia/

Extractions: Welcome We hope study participants and their families, researchers, mental health professionals, and the general public will find the information and resources here helpful. We encourage visitors to this site to click here to give us feedback. Our Mission Statement explains the goals of the project, started in 1983, by Ann E. Pulver, Sc.D. , and the Project History will give you an idea of the progress we have made in the almost two decades since we began our work. Our current laboratory efforts in molecular genetics are concentrated in two areas : 1) following up significant genomic regions implicated in our genome scan for schizophrenia susceptibility loci published in 1998 (particularly on chromosomes 8, 13, and 22), and 2) finding new regions of interest as well as testing candidate genes and regions identified by other investigating groups in schizophrenia. These studies are being conducted using our unique family resources which include families of diverse ethnic backgrounds. Collaborations with our molecular geneticists and our genetic analysts both here at Johns Hopkins and at other institutions throughout the world enable us to pursue our goal of unraveling the genetic underpinnings of severe mental disorders using state-of-the-art techniques.
