Hi

i understand your concern.

But schizophrenia need proper detail work up on mental status examination.

It can be classified in delusion/ hallucinations/ disorganized speech and behavior etc.

But if you have been diagnosed paranoid schizophrenia then it is mostly biological in origin means there are genes which are responsible for it.

But treatment is must.

Early treatment will give better response.

So please take it regularly.

Still have query then feel free to ask.

Thank you.
