.i am struggling with negative and cognitive symptoms…
I believe that schizophrenia has been around since the beginning of time. It has only been described scientifically in the last 200 years. But, it’s been around forever.
I’m sorry to hear about this @far_cry0.
Do you also suffer with delusions and hallucinations?
Because if you don’t then maybe you don’t have schizophrenia.

Stone Age skulls with burr holes drilled into them (presumably to release ‘evil spirits’) have led to speculation that schizophrenia is as old as mankind itself.
their all schizophrenic…even normal people. we just lost…
we are lucky to have the drug treatment programs to keep us sane now…the medievel times were twisted against the mentally ill.
