  1. 5 Types Of Schizophrenia Explained

  2. Paranoid Schizophrenia The most prevalent form of schizophrenia diagnosed before 2013 was paranoid schizophrenia. This representation of schizophrenia is most frequently seen in media and on screen. The signs of paranoid schizophrenia include: frequent auditory and visual hallucinations, obsession with one or more delusions, slurred speech, difficulty focusing, and severe behavioral impairment.

  3. Catatonia Schizophrenia Catatonic schizophrenia is one of the rarest forms of illness and is less frequently diagnosed. Some specialists argue that catatonia should continue to be a significant and separate specifier when discussing schizophrenia because it can occur in a broad spectrum of psychiatric diseases and general medical conditions. People having catatonia schizophrenia: may not respond to stimuli, frequently hold bizarre body positions, move strangely, and exhibit extreme limb rigidity.

  4. Disorganized Schizophrenia Disorganized schizophrenia is also referred to as hebephrenic schizophrenia. Delusions and hallucinations are among the symptoms which are characterized by aberrant behavior and incoherent speech. Other symptoms include: inappropriate emotional and facial reactions, disorganized thinking, and difficulty performing daily tasks. Most individuals with a diagnosis of schizophrenia experience the majority of these symptoms

  5. Residual Schizophrenia Residual schizophrenia can be a little perplexing. The diagnosis was made when a person who had previously been diagnosed with schizophrenia still displayed symptoms like a flattened affect, psychomotor difficulties, and slurred speech but no longer displayed prominent symptoms like delusions and hallucinations. Experts now recognize that many people with schizophrenia go through phases where the frequency and severity of their symptoms increase and decrease. These lingering symptoms are typical in many situations.

  6. Undifferentiated Schizophrenia People whose symptoms fell under more than one subtype of schizophrenia were diagnosed with undifferentiated schizophrenia. For instance, undifferentiated schizophrenia may have been identified in a patient with cognitive impairments, catatonic behavior, delusions, and hallucinations.
