She had severe insomnia, along with intrusive thoughts and struggles with dealing with stress.

Childhood schizophrenia is more infrequent then later onset schizophrenia. A child or young adolescent might become more isolated and have troubles focusing because they're more focused on delusions and false thoughts.

Symptoms of schizophrenia include catatonia, delusion, hallucinations, lack of hygiene and so much more. Schizophrenia is more common in males than in females. Symptoms appear when one of the neural circuit situated in the midbrain overproduced neurotransmitter called dopamine. This disrupts the balance between secretion dopamine and acetylcholine. Medication includes antipsychotic drugs, like risperidone.

It's his job to figure out what's real and what's not. They tell him that he's not strong or smart and he's weird looking and other negative things. He either has to fight or accept the voice and fight it to find the truth. He also has some residual paranoia along with heavy anxiety and struggles with speaking to other people.]]> 2020-11-19 00:47:16 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939395595 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939396019 Schizophrenia is a chronic, severe, and often disabling brain disorder. It can be divided into 3 groups of symptoms - positive, negative, and disorganized symptoms. Positive symptoms include hallucinations and delusions, which leads to the person being confused on what's real. Negative symptoms include loss of motivation and difficulty finding pleasure in fun activities. They may not show emotions or talk much. Disorganized symptoms include unusual or disorganized thinking and speech, bizarre behavior, and inappropriate responses to social situations. Any of these symptoms can have a disabling effect on an individuals day-to-day life. It may begin in the mid to late years of teens.]]> 2020-11-19 00:47:28 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939396019 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939396201 It can be a lifelong severe mental illness, but it can also be managed with treatment. They felt as if people didn't like them and couldn't connect. They would either quickly switch topics in a conversation, or talk about things that didn't make sense to other people. Became more isolated as years went on. Seeing the counselor helped them realize their symptoms and open up. It impacts every part of life. After talking to a psychiatrist, they were prescribed medication that helped them feel less paranoid, talk more to others and hear the voices less often. Having people in their group listen, talk, and accept them really made an impact on their ongoing recovery journey.]]> 2020-11-19 00:47:33 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939396201 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939396360 When they got diagnosed, they felt relieved to know what they were dealing with, but the label was also a heavy one to bear. It started when they were around 16 with mental health issues. There were certain behaviors, such as avoiding mirror or blocking up gaps in doors that made them realize something wasn't right. Only after a few years did people realize something wasn't right. The start of symptoms was very subtle, starting with distortion and melting objects and furniture insects crawling on their skin. It gradually went on to negative voices, which lead them to become more isolated and be more creative and into drawing then being social. They finally got help when they started seeing fish in the car. Started off with antidepressants, and then moved onto antipsychotics. They'd rather be themself then be dosed up on medication that made them not feel like their own person.]]> 2020-11-19 00:47:39 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939396360 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939515725 I chose this topic because I don't see many people talk about it and I find it very interesting. I learned that it's more than just seeing unrealistic things, it's hearing voices and constant paranoia and feeling disconnected from your mind and body. I found it interesting how it's more likely to occur in people that have family members who suffer from the illness.]]> 2020-11-19 01:48:34 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939515725 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939522500 2020-11-19 01:52:08 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939522500 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939525126 2020-11-19 01:53:39 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939525126 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939528196 2020-11-19 01:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939528196 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939529672 2020-11-19 01:56:08 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939529672 24rotho1_1 https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939532697 2020-11-19 01:57:48 UTC https://padlet.com/24rotho1_1/ep9ieo6yuzwgbuae/wish/939532697
