Question
At 11 years old, has already started having sex. Will they be mentally retarded in the future? Not sure how to look at it.
Answer
Psychotic symptoms include abnormal thinking and experiences caused by brain disorders, simply put, there is a problem with self-control, but their intelligence is not at all impaired. Mental retardation, on the other hand, refers to poor brain development, with intelligence, thinking, and life skills significantly below those of their peers. There is no necessary connection between mental retardation and psychosis. Whether someone has a low or high IQ, there is still a possibility of developing psychosis. Strictly speaking, mental retardation is a group of symptoms caused by certain diseases or harmful factors, and it is not a unit of a disease itself.
