We understand that schizophrenia is not just a mental illness, it’s a life-altering condition that affects the way a person thinks, feels, and connects with reality. Individuals with schizophrenia often experience distorted thinking, hallucinations, or delusions, making it hard to differentiate between reality and imagination. This can deeply affect their ability to work, maintain relationships, and carry out daily life activities. With the right support, structure, and care, individuals with schizophrenia can lead fulfilling, productive lives. Our expert team offers one of the most trusted, science-backed & personalized treatment plans for schizophrenia in India, combining clinical excellence with compassionate care.
Schizophrenia is a chronic and severe mental health condition that impacts how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. It’s one of the most complex psychiatric disorders, often misunderstood due to myths and stigma. People with schizophrenia may seem like they have lost touch with reality, experiencing hallucinations, delusions, or disorganized thinking that can deeply affect their everyday functioning and relationships.
It typically appears in late adolescence or early adulthood, with men usually showing symptoms earlier than women. Schizophrenia affects around 1 in 100 people globally, but with early diagnosis and proper treatment, many individuals go on to lead fulfilling, meaningful lives.
Symptoms can vary, but often include:
● Hallucinations: Most commonly hearing voices that others do not hear.
● Delusions: Strongly held false beliefs, such as thinking others are spying on them or believing they are someone famous or divine.
● Disorganized thinking and speech: Jumping from topic to topic, incoherent speech, or responding with unrelated answers.
● Abnormal motor behavior: This may include unpredictable agitation, unusual postures, or even complete lack of movement (catatonia).
● Difficulty focusing or paying attention
● Poor memory (especially working memory)
● Trouble planning or making decisions
The exact cause is still unknown, but several factors may contribute:
Schizophrenia doesn’t usually appear suddenly. In many cases, there’s a prodromal phase—a period where early signs are visible but not yet full-blown symptoms. These can include:
Recognizing these early signs can lead to early intervention, which significantly improves treatment outcomes.
Understanding risk helps with early intervention:
At Veda Rehab, we have superior healthcare professionals who identify symptoms and causes through various approaches and get the right diagnosis which is critical. Before recommending the best treatment, they conduct a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, which includes:

This helps us understand your overall well-being and identify what might potentially be causing the disorder.
Schizophrenia can be diagnosed through behavioral and cognitive assessments by observing patterns like disorganized speech, poor concentration, social withdrawal, and impaired thinking and the key indicators of how the disorder affects daily functioning and mental processing.
A diagnosis of schizophrenia is typically made when symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, or disorganized behavior persist for at least six months and significantly impair the individual’s ability to function in daily life.
This criterion for above diagnosis is in line with the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) guidelines used by mental health professionals worldwide.
