The effectiveness of the treatment of schizophrenia
This disease has many forms,it also manifests itself in different ways, since it has a rich symptom complex. How the disease will develop, no one can predict. With the modern development of pharmaceutics, the chances of stopping the disease are good, and if a person maintains a normal condition with medications, he can live a full life and be socially adapted. The new generation drugs can remove symptoms, normalize the emotional background, which enables the patient to find a decent job, have a family and children. But doctors now do not have information about how and why this disease appears, and for this reason there are no drugs that can completely cure the patient. It is only possible to maintain a stable remission. If the progression of the disease is high, then the prognosis is disappointing. Today, experiments are conducted with stem cells that are able to replace any affected cells in the body, including brain cells. If the experiment succeeds, it will be possible to win schizophrenia.

The help of the psychotherapist at a schizophrenia is not necessaryunderestimate. He plays an important role in ensuring the stability of the patient. His professional support is no less important than the drug treatment course.

With the help of this specialist, the patient learns what awaits him if he interrupts treatment, which can provoke an attack. The doctor also explains the basic rules of behavior so that the relapse does not develop. At the same time, the therapist works with the relatives of the patient, teaches them how to communicate correctly, which will help to adapt the latter, and explains that if cure is impossible, this does not mean that the patient should be in a social vacuum. On how well the patient will be adapted life, depends on the moral microclimate of the family in which such a person lives. The psychotherapist organizes groups of patients in whom they realize their illness and learn to live with it, and also communicate among themselves, supporting each other.
