9 Warning Signs and Symptoms of Schizophrenia

Positive Symptoms of Schizophrenia

The symptoms received this name not because of their positive effect on the patient’s condition, but as a result of the addition of new paints during the course of the disease. Positive symptoms are:

1- Hallucinations

Hallucinations are false perceptions of reality that can affect every sense: sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. Most people with schizophrenia, however, experience auditory hallucinations and hearing voices in their head is the most common.

2- Delusions

These are irrational beliefs that aren’t grounded in reality. They’re usually personal and follow specific themes, which can be so outrageous they seem right out of a page-turning spy novel.
