questions

[AdrocK48]

Hey all. first time posting here in this forum. ive been doing a bit of research on the disorder and i feel i need to ask some questions about schizophrenia.

is there any key factors to look for if you think someone has schizophrenia?
at what point do you say that someone needs to get checked out by a doctor? ala how much of an effect does it need to have in order to see someone?
who would one need to see to get checked out? a doctor? a councellor? a psychiatrist?
is there a cure for the disorder?

There is no cure but it can be treated. I suggest seeing a psychiatrist as its what they specialize in, mental disorders. Perhaps seeing a regular doctor is fine too to be sure that the body is sound. The moment you suspect something is wrong would be a good time to start seeing someone.

I totally agree with this. I am praying.
