Some norms outside US never heard of schizophrenia

Talked to several people over the years from Asia and shared about my illness. They never heard about sz. Is it because of Hollywood and the media’s crap that everyone in the US you tell , tends to get a little weird for awhile after you tell them? I’ve never met anyone from the US that didn’t have some idea or warped idea what sz is. Any body from that area have any input. How about you @far_cry0?

About 1.1% people suffer from sz…many people dont have clue what really sz iz … i shared with few friend that i have sz they were surprised cuz they dont know what sz is…

If they know about sz…they only have info about positive symptoms… they are ignorant about cognitive and negative symptoms…
