Paranoid Schizophren: You lose touch with reality, become delusional & hear things that are not real. Your memory, concentration & emotions are still somewhat intact.

Suspicion is Key: Schizophrenia is characterized by a disturbance in an individuals cognition and emotion, which impact perception, thought, and language. Two primary symptoms include hallucinations (auditory, visual) and delusions (false belief). If you suspect you have this condition, you should schedule an appointment with your doctor or local mental health center.
