Question
It’s difficult to concentrate when communicating with others, frequently getting distracted by surrounding things during conversations, and struggling to focus on listening to others. Does this indicate a case of schizophrenia, and what is the severity?
Answer
Schizophrenia is a disease that currently has no complete cure. Only a few patients may not have relapsed due to individual differences, but this does not mean they will not relapse in the future. The main treatment method at present is medication treatment, using antipsychotic drugs and persistently taking them long-term to effectively control the condition. The treatment for schizophrenia should be discovered and carried out as early as possible without delaying treatment due to social perceptions. After the condition stabilizes, efforts should be made to restore the patient’s social function, and treatment should be consolidated within an appropriate time frame to avoid stopping treatment immediately.
