In order to make your speech realistic, reasonable and understood about sz;
You should distinguish between;
The sayings,thoughts,expressive feelings and all types of behavior responses of the individual AND the SZ itself as an independent health condition that has been arisen from absolute nothing and embodied and settled down in the inner conscious state of a human being in the early twenties of age
Why this distinguishing ?
this in order to determine the casual relationship between the diagnostic material details and the existential effect+ functional effect of the new condition (SZ) .
Because,all symptoms arise as a result of the effectiveness of the sz pathogen on the higher mental processes / emotion theater which they precede the production of all personal behavioral responses
In the case,if you ignore what we say, the sz condition will be just a group of symptoms ,
a group meeting of a symptoms causing a disease condition called schizophrenia
(The disease itself is the symptom OR the symptom itself is the disease)
The symptoms cannot create their causes or precede them ontologically
In the other side, it is understood that,the symptoms ( Any) are the expressions of the disease
and the disease is the pathogen ( the pathogen represents the substance of the disease)
We can not rationalize that the Symptoms is the disease is the pathogen !!
because,if we ask you simple question:
what is the causes of schizophrenia symptoms ?
you will going to search about these causes (pathogen) !!
