Schizophrenia
Cancer Risk Higher with Mental Illness
The schizophrenic mind is not so much split as shattered. I like to say schizophrenia is like a waking nightmare.

My Opinion
At first I didn't know that Schizophrenia and bipolar disorders was so severe and deadly.Only because in everyday life i never really hear about it, I usually hear about shootings, murders, and kidnapping. I picked this topic to talk about because a classmate told me that Amanda Bynes had Schizophrenia and i didn't know the meaning of it so I looked more into it. To be honest, I think teenagers play around with the word "bipolar" a lot. For an example, someone would be happy one minute, irritated the next minute, happy the next minute ,than automatically assume "they're bipolar". Maybe if everyone knew how serious this issue was they wouldn't be so quick to say they're bipolar. So I made a blog about Schizophrenia. This connects back to history because due to the misunderstanding of psychology the church believed schizophrenia was their because of demon possession and people believed that the women messed around with Satan the time it was believed that demon possession was a side affect of their unholy powers.
Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is an issue that NEEDS TO BE viewed at more frequently because it is as harmful as any other mental illness. Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by a breakdown of thought processes and by impaired emotional responses. Common symptoms include delusions, such as paranoid beliefs; hallucinations; disorganized thinking; and negative symptoms.
SPEAK OUT !
Many people in the world don't know that Amanda Bynes has Schizophrenia and how SICK she gets from this illness. If Amanda stops taking her medication her life would be at risk
Amanda Bynes: Showing Signs of Schizophrenia, Violent Mood Swings, "Severe Mental Illness"

People have different perspectives about Schizophrenia or bipolar disorders. Some people might feel as though it's not as severe or harmless as many other illnesses and diseases and that its just a "personality split". People might have the idea set in their head that its "just a bipolar disorder" and that people have mood swings everyday. However, people with Schizophrenia have a higher risk of cancer so don't over look this severe issue.
