Overview
As researchers reveal new insights about schizophrenia and new treatments are developed, the prevailing view has shifted to that of recovery. Recovery is a process whereby an individual improves their general wellness and lives life to their fullest potential. This is in stark contrast with the historical view, in which people assumed that someone diagnosed with schizophrenia would be institutionalized, overmedicated, and unable to function in the real world. Thus, offering little hope to those affected by it. Recovery is marked by optimism and hopefulness, rather than emphasizing disability or chronicity of impairment, and is predicated upon access to evidence-based interventions and a range of recovery support services. With the right supports, a person diagnosed with schizophrenia can achieve goals such as living independently, engaging in meaningful or productive activity, and maintaining satisfying relationships.
Goals and Learning Outcomes
- Identify the primary symptoms of schizophrenia.
- Recall the possible biological and environmental origins of schizophrenia.
