Schizophrenia

PrintPrint

Schizophrenia is a brain disorder that is severe and chronic and can disable the functionality of the brain.. Patients of schizophrenia experience bizarre sensations that are unknown to common people. Because of this, the patients also develop problems like withdrawal, fear and excessive agitation. Since it affects the brain, victims of this disease may indulge in aimless talking or activity and natural schizophrenia cures aim to soothe this disturbed state of mind.

People diagnosed with schizophrenia usually experience a combination of positive (i.e. hallucinations, delusions, racing thoughts), negative (i.e. apathy, lack of emotion, poor or nonexistant social functioning), and cognitive (disorganized thoughts, difficulty concentrating and/or following instructions, difficulty completing tasks, memory problems) symptoms. Schizophrenia is usually diagnosed in peopleaged 17-35 years. The illness appears earlier in men (in the late teens or early twenties) than in women (who are affected in the twenties to early thirties). Many of them are disabled.

Medical science believes the unnatural secretion of dopamine and serotonin, two chemicals in the brain, leads to schizophrenia. Genes can also be a factor, since these disorders often run in the family. Often schizophrenia signs and symptoms are seen to be hereditary. Excessive stress can also lead to the condition.

We have been trying to find the cure for such common problem in modern medical science where the answer is explained in our ancient Yoga Practice.
