There are many theories about the causes of schizophrenia, but none have been proven so far. This disease may be a genetic disorder, since your chances of developing the disease increases if you have a father or brother who does, but most people who have relatives with the disease never develop.
And some researchers say the disease may be related to problems experienced during pregnancy such as malnutrition or when the mother is exposed to a viral infection, which could potentially damage or affect the developing nervous system in children, As it grows it could be seen reflected in schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia causes two groups of symptoms that are the negative and positive. The negatives often include lack of motivation or apathy, reduced or inappropriate emotions as angry for no reason with strangers and do not properly care for himself, and leaving the bath. These symptoms are usually displayed first and could be confused with depression.
Positive symptoms, which are those that usually appear later, include symptoms such as delusion, hallucinations and disorganized or confusing thoughts that are shown in a manner of speaking just as confusing. Symptoms of schizophrenia usually appear in adolescence or early adulthood and can appear suddenly or develop gradually, which causes the disease is not recognized until it is in an advanced stage when treatment more difficult.
