A complete cure has yet to be found in the case of schizophrenia. Still the best scientist are working to develop the best treatments and are actually making considerable progress in their fight against this terrible disease. Being a mental sickness it affects in many ways the life of the patient and the lives of the people next to him. The person suffering from schizophrenia suffers a lot because of its inability to properly act the human thought, emotion and of course expression. Depressions are most often present in the adult patient. This is believed to be a result of the negative response that the patient has received from the people around him , from society in general. Some doctors believe that the depression is most certainly a process itself of the disease. It is very difficult for a schizophrenic patient to care and provide for itself. Still, promising results have emerged after several long term studies have been made. After the general age of 25 sick persons are able to sustain them selves on their own. Thus we see them providing for them selves, working and earning a living and of course integrating rather nice in society. Support from social services improves the general life of people suffering from schizophrenia by providing help and sometime housing. Treating the disease in its earlier forms greatly improves the way that a person can afterwards live. The lesser the symptoms the more likely that the person is going to integrate better in to society and thus get the proper respect. Some intelligence factors have also been found out to cause problems. Some half of the patience have showed signs of drop in their IQ, but very significant. A drop in the person’s IQ will most certainly indicate the fact that nerve cells are starting to degrade and that the nervous system is not functioning properly. This may well include the affection of the conections between the cells. Violence in schizophrenic people is actually very unlikely to happen. No more than in normal people. Because of their precarious state of health and mind they are more likely to withdraw from a confrontation. The sad fact about patients suffering from this disorder is that a large number of them will at some point attempt suicide. The even sadder part is that many of them succeed. Most of this actions happen after great psychological shock or after a depression. Regarding suicide, it is the only domain where the usage of antipsychotic drugs have revealed no god results. Still a lot of things are improving in the life of people with this terrible disorder.
