Explanation:

Schizophrenia is the most common of psychotic diseases. At the population level, the incidence of schizophrenia in the world is about 0.4%.

Schizophrenia is diagnosed in people with very different symptoms. The main symptoms are a loss of a sense of reality, or psychoticism, due to hallucinations, delusions, impaired thinking and depression of emotions.

Schizophrenia does not mean that a person is in a psychotic state for the rest of his or her life, as at the onset of the illness, because schizophrenia has several medical conditions. Some have only one episode of psychosis that has led to the diagnosis of the disease, some have alternation of asymptomatic and psychotic episodes, and some have ongoing psychotic episodes.
