What Are The Symptoms Of Schizophrenia?
What are the symptoms of schizophrenia? I am getting very worried about my 35 year old stepson. He thinks people are out to get him, that they are following him, even people he barely knows - like our neighbors who only know him to say hello. I m very worried as my husbands brother was schizophrenia, is this something that can run in families?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
In my opinion, symptoms of Schizophrenia are hallucinations that can be a single voice or several voices, and that can be commenting on what one is doing.
Some Common symptoms are:
-Commanding voices.
-Thoughts being known to others-
-Poor self-care
-Problems in attention-
-Planning social withdrawal
It can run in families, but it only means there is an increased risk.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Gayathri
