What is the theory behind the Schizophrenia Worksheet for Patients?
Schizophrenia is a psychotic mental illness characterised by serious disturbances in one’s ability to perceive reality leading to disorders thinking, emotional responses and maladaptive behaviours that cause significant loss of daily function. Some key features of this disorder are frequent delusions, hallucinations and very odd emotional and behavioural responses. Since it severely hampers one’s ability to take care of themselves, it is crucial to help diagnosed individuals set up a self-care plan.
