Dr. Dasen Brajkovic treats many
different disorders and one of the most complicated is schizophrenia.
Not only is schizophrenia hard to diagnose and treat, it can also be
stressful for those suffering from the disorder. If you think you may
have schizophrenia, talk to a psychiatrist and explain your symptoms
today.
Hallucination
Hallucinations
are common in people suffering from schizophrenia. To the sufferer, the
hallucinations may seem real and they may even talk or move around. The
sufferer may even react with fear of their hallucinations.
Impaired Communication
Many
people suffering from schizophrenia have a hard time communicating.
Their thinking is often disorganized and they have a hard time putting
words into sentences or expressing their thoughts. In some cases, they
may not even have complete thoughts.
Abnormal Movement
Schizophrenia
sufferers may move around in strange ways. They may stand or sit with
an incorrect or abnormal posture and may make excessive movements. They
can also be unresponsive at times and not make the necessary or expected
movements.
Neglect
People
with schizophrenia often neglect themselves and their homes. They may
become so caught up in their fantasies and hallucinations that they no
longer clean, bathe or brush their teeth.
Schizophrenia
must be diagnosed by a psychiatrist like Dasen Brajkovic MD. If you are
suffering from any of the above symptoms, or know someone else who is,
talk to a doctor or psychiatrist today. The sooner you find out if you
are suffering from schizophrenia, the sooner you can begin treatment.
