Anthropological context: | |||
Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness characterized by cognitive deficits and often complicated by physical health issues. Cultural contexts significantly influence the diagnosis and perception of symptoms like hallucinations. In Western culture, schizophrenia is seen purely as a disease, while in places like Ghana and India, it has religious ties and is seen as separate from identity<ref>{{cite book |last1=Lurhmann and Marrow |title=Our most troubling madness: Case studies in schizophrenia across cultures |publisher=University of California Press |pages=215 |ref=Luhrmann, T.M. and Marrow, J. eds., 2016. Our most troubling madness: Case studies in schizophrenia across cultures (Vol. 11). Univ of California Press}}</ref>. Anti-social behaviour is viewed as “abnormal” in many cultural contexts, but those with schizophrenia may be considered “normal” if their behaviour aligns with social norms <ref>{{cite book |last1=Lurhmann and Marrow |title=Our most troubling madness: Case studies in schizophrenia across cultures |publisher=University of California Press |pages=9 |ref=Luhrmann, T.M. and Marrow, J. eds., 2016. Our most troubling madness: Case studies in schizophrenia across cultures (Vol. 11). Univ of California Press}}</ref>. The level of care varies with the stigma attached to schizophrenia across cultures. In the West, schizophrenia is heavily medicalized, often leading to social exclusion and identity issues. From an anthropological perspective, schizophrenia is a cultural construct; what is considered pathological in one society may be viewed as spiritual in another <ref>{{cite book |last1=McKenna |title=ood of the Gods: The Search for the Original Tree of Knowledge |publisher=New York: Bantam Books |pages=86 |ref=McKenna, T. (1992) Food of the Gods: The Search for the Original Tree of Knowledge. New York: Bantam Books.}}</ref>. In shamanic cultures, experiences like hearing voices are seen as part of a healer’s journey. Mental health is deeply embedded within social and political structures that define normalcy and pathology. This aligns with Scheper-Hughes and Lock’s concept of the "three bodies" —the individual body, social body, and body politic— emphasizing that perceptions of health and illness are socially constructed <ref>{{cite book |last1=Scheper-Hughes and Lock |title=‘The mindful body: A prolegomenon to future work in medical anthropology’ |publisher=Medical Anthropology Quarterly |ref=Scheper-Hughes, N. and Lock, M.M. (1987) ‘The mindful body: A prolegomenon to future work in medical anthropology’, Medical Anthropology Quarterly, 1(1), pp. 6-41.}}</ref>. Schizophrenia, therefore, is not universally defined but culturally mediated. ] (]) 01:24, 26 August 2024 (UTC) | |||

== Add A Fact: "No schizophrenia in congenitally blind" == | |||
I found a fact that might belong in this article. See the quote below | |||
<blockquote> | |||
most studies agree that “there has not been even one reported case of a congenitally blind person who developed schizophrenia” | |||
</blockquote> | |||
The fact comes from the following source: | |||
: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4246684/ | |||
Additional comments from user: There seems to be a lot written about this, and it's a little nuanced, but it seems significant enough that WP should make some accurate mention of it. | |||

:@] The current article is 8000 words.

I'm not quite sure if you could create a long enough article on comorbidities alone however if you think you have anough information for that (ideally the page would be over 1000 words to warrent its own article) then I encourage you to do so. My other question is, have you ever contributed to a medical article before? We kinda have our own set of guidlines regarding style and sources ( see ] and ]) which can be a bit tricky to navigate at first.

If your schizophrenic you have a BCI in your eye and your being electronically harassed. See definition of electronic harassment below. That said, you cannot be schizophrenic if you are blind because all schizophrenics' have a BCI in their eye. | |||
The article refers to things like *parents* at the age of birth. Changing this would be nice. ] (]) 01:06, 13 December 2024 (UTC) | |||
Electronic Harassment - is when the victims BCI is configured to self talk and someone at the source communicates by mumbling or uploading something forcing the victim at the destination to talk out loud (schizophrenic). ] (]) 15:27, 22 August 2024 (UTC) |

New Meta-Analysis: Cats and Schizophrenia
I would like to add cat ownership as a risk factor. See meta-analysis in Schizophrenia Bulletin: https://doi.org/10.1093/schbul/sbad168. SigTif (talk) 15:53, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

Without her I wouldn't even be here. 17 cases is science apparently, too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skinmarquee (talk • contribs) 05:07, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

"May need to be divided or trimmed; likelihood goes up with size."
