What Is Schizophrenia?

schizophrenic

Schizophrenia, also sometimes known as split personality disorder, 

is a chronic, severe and draining mental illness.

It is considered one of the psychotic mental disorders 

and is characterized by symptoms of thought, behavior, and social problems.

 Psychotic means out of touch with reality or unable to separate real from unreal experiences.

The thought problems associated with schizophrenia are described as psychosis, 

in that the person's thinking is completely out of touch with reality at times. 
 People having this type of illness may likely having the state of 'their own world'. 

For example, 

the sufferer may hear voices or see people that are in no way present 

or feel like bugs are crawling on their skin when there are none.

 Sometimes they also having what we called delusions, 

which are ideas about themselves or others that have no basis in reality.

For instance, 

the individual might experience paranoia, 

in that he or she thinks others are plotting against them when they are not.

Assalammualaikum Readers and Bloggers..

We are proudly announced to all of you that this blog had been an official blog 

for our Physiological Psychology's subject , sem 1, 2011/2012.

We also would like to express our gratitude to our honorable lecturer,

Dr. Hariyati Shahrima Abdul Majid,

for giving us this valuable opportunities regarding on how to educate the public

on the relationship between our unique brain structures, functions created by Allah to us,

and the medical illness or psychological disorder.

As psychology's student, we are expected by the public to be more well known in

varieties of medical illness facing by some people. However, we are not in that well know position yet.

We are still learning and our knowledge does not in the 'well known" zone yet.

Due to this expectation from the public and also our responsibilities who are been

training to get well known to some medical diseases nowadays,

we think that this assignment which had been given by our lecturer,

 was a great chance for us to grab all the knowledge regarding on certain medical illness.

Our group had agreed to choose schizophrenia as our main educational material because

we know that sometimes people are familiar with schizophrenia,

but somehow they do not know what actually it is.

Schizophrenia popular in its name but not in its contents.

Thus, we think that this is a big chance for us to spread the knowledge and to educate the public

about what it is schizophrenia is all about..

Apart from that, as the one who are responsible on educating people about this disease,

we are indirectly benefited from this project too.

We can improves our knowledge on this medical illness,

and also not to forget we can improve our technology skill since we are using blog as our medium 

to spread the knowledge regarding on schizophrenia disease.

There are so many advantages that we can get as a writer as well as a learner from this project.
