  • Schizophrania is not a disease! Shows you how little people know about it!

  • Angelsnupnup7 is right. Mental disorders are just named like that because of quack psychiatrists who want money. Even if there was a thing called mental illness, which I have supposedly, there's no reason why I should take psychiatric drugs. Why? to get obese or to have brain atrophy or heart failure with over dose? Are you kidding me? Watch Persuit of Happiness. People with challenges should be like Will Smith in the movie AND also EXCERCISE AND EAT HEALTHY.

  • Read Explaining colours to a blind man. Not only will it enlighten many as to what living with a mental illness and chronic fatigue syndrome is like, it also gives comfort to those sufferers who think there is no hope and that they are alone. It is very informative, sometimes shocking but also very funny in parts. All in all, a good read and highly recommended.

  • No, I have Schizophrenia and I hate to bust your bubble but it is a real mental disorder. Only if you knew...

  • we have so much more to learn about neurotransmitters,aswell as discovering the unknown brain chemicals. schiz is a genetically based disease causing severe neurotransmitter imbalances in the brain resulting in the so calld psychotic symptoms.

  • You have no idea what you're talking about. I suppose diabetes is a made up illness too. Ignorant retard...

  • Do you know anyone with Schizophrenia? My mother has it and believe me it is real. I understand the physical part, because it is a chemical imbalance of the brain. I agree it is a big money maker but growing up with a mentally ill mother and seeing the pain and shunning she went through because of lack of knowledge was terrible.

  • what r the symptoms it didnt say

  • Schiz is a fake made up illness just like all of psychiatry a bunch of quacks taking advantage of an ignorant public like the leaders of religions,even the MAN who coined the name says it is more a physical ailment than a mental disorder but the quacks don't want to hear it cause this so called illness is mental health's biggest moneymaker,FRAUD

  • more drugs for the loss!!!! treating the symptoms is never a good idea. do we treat symptoms for any other disease? NO only mental disorders.

    Why not attack the source? not that I know how, i think that freudian therapy would be more productive than popping more pills.
