Schizophrenia                     

Schizophrenia is a complex psychiatric condition that affects how a person thinks, feels, and perceives reality. Symptoms may include hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, and emotional blunting, often leading to significant disruptions in daily life. From an integrative psychiatry perspective, schizophrenia is approached as a multidimensional condition influenced by genetics, brain chemistry, trauma, inflammation, environmental stressors, and lifestyle factors. Treatment is personalized and may combine antipsychotic medication with psychotherapy, nutritional and metabolic support, stress reduction practices, and family or community-based interventions—aiming to support stability, functionality, and long-term healing.
