Schizophrenia and Religion
By Newton Joseph
This is a Definition of Schizophrenia and some of its =
symptoms. Schizophrenia bears an uncanny resemblance to 'Christian =
fundamentalism'. These are not my own definitions; They are snipped from =
recognized medical sites and medical encyclopedia.
Definition
Any of a group of psychotic disorders usually characterized =
by withdrawal from reality, illogical patterns of thinking, delusions, =
and hallucinations, and accompanied in varying degrees by other =
emotional, behavioral, or intellectual disturbances. Schizophrenia is =
associated with dopamine imbalances in the brain and defects of the =
frontal lobe and is caused by genetic, other biological, and =
psychosocial factors.=20
Symptoms
Delusions
Delusions are false beliefs that are deeply entrenched and =
clearly not based in reality and are not consistent with cultural =
beliefs or the persons' level of intelligence and life experiences. =
Persons cling to these believes even after the believes are shown to be =
false.
These false beliefs may be very difficult for family or =
friends to understand, since they do not make sense. Again, a delusion =
seems as real to the person as a belief grounded in reality.
Specific Delusions
Bizarre delusions are hallucinations consisting of two or =
more voices conversing with each other or of a single voice affecting a =
person's behaviors or thoughts.=20
=95 Unworthy Said: - "How do I know God has said anything? I =
have heard him speak in an audible voice".=20
=95 Phoenix said: - "As I was going about my daily task, the =
Lord spoke to me...."
Hallucinations
People with schizophrenia may experience hallucinations. =
That is, they may hear, see, feel or smell things that are not there. =
Just as in a dream, where fantastic events can not be distinguished from =
real events, hallucinations can not be distinguished from real events. =
Thus, the hallucination of a voice talking is perceived in the brain =
just like a real person talking.=20
Discussions about their objective truth or plausibility of =
the hallucinations are not valuable. The experience is true and very =
vivid to the patient and has to be accepted as such. Attempts to "set =
the person straight" result in resistance, tension, and bad feelings.
Hallucinations are false perceptions or unreal apparitions. =
They do not correspond to the stimuli that is present and have no basis =
in reality. You have to remember that what is an hallucination in one =
culture, is not in another.
'Ray of light' believes he can fly around outside of his =
physical body.
disorganized speech or behavior
A person with schizophrenia may have disorganized speech or =
behavior; so that what they do or say does not make much sense.=20
Read any post made by 'Young'.
Preoccupations
These are fixed ideas, not necessarily false (like =
delusions) but overvalued. That means they take on extraordinary =
importance and take up an inordinate amount of thought time.=20
One idea often returns and returns. Frequently it is a worry =
about doing the right thing or doing it well or doing it in time. =
Characteristically, the worry grows and becomes unrealistic. A common =
sequence of events is for the worry to take up so much of a person's =
time that the "right thing" does not get done and its not being done is =
then attributed to the bad motives of others. Or it may be rationalized =
as God's wish.=20
These kinds of explanations sound odd to others but to the =
patient they seem warranted. He does not understand why others see them =
merely as "excuses." To him they explain the facts better than any other =
explanation he can think of.=20
Sometimes these preoccupations have a mystifying character =
to them. They seem to require puzzling over and decoding. The =
schizophrenic patient spends much time in this kind of activity and that =
is why he thinks he has solved mysteries that others haven't, since they =
have spent no time at it.
Denial of illness
Some individuals are able to admit to themselves that they =
could ever be deficient or vulnerable in any way. Most illnesses that =
start in late adolescence tend to be denied because adolescence is a =
time when deficiencies are hard to accept. The problem of illness denial =
is that it makes treatment impossible. This is true of all illnesses =
that require treatment and is not specific for schizophrenia. Since lack =
of treatment in schizophrenia can have serious consequences, families =
need to be especially firm about this.=20
Schizophrenic Symptoms are continuous and persistent
Secondary symptoms (Mechanisms patients may develop to cope =
with fundamental symptoms).=20
Hallucinations, Paranoid ideation, Grandiosity. =
argumentative, Superiority complex, inappropriate laughter.=20
This describes chic-n-little perfectly. chic even types =
"*laughin*" at the end of many sentences regardless of the absence of =
humor.
