Undifferentiated schizophrenia

There are many mental illnesses, and the consequences of different diseases are actually not much different. They all manifest themselves as being extremely emotional and living in their own world. Undifferentiated schizophrenia is a mental illness in which the personality is relatively concentrated and there is no abnormal personality. Most people may not have been exposed to this disease. So what is undifferentiated schizophrenia?

Undifferentiated schizophrenia refers to a group of patients who meet the diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia and have obvious positive symptoms, but do not meet the diagnostic criteria for paranoid, juvenile, and catatonic types, or who exhibit characteristics of more than one subtype but do not have a clearly dominant diagnostic feature, including atypical schizophrenia. About 50% of patients develop the disease between the ages of 20 and 30.

Schizophrenia is a clinical syndrome consisting of a group of psychotic symptoms and is a multifactorial disease. Although the current understanding of its cause is still unclear, there is a consensus that the individual's psychological susceptibility and adverse factors in the external social environment play a role in the occurrence and development of the disease. Both susceptibility and external adverse factors may lead to the occurrence of the disease through the combined effects of internal biological factors. The factors causing the disease in different patients may be more prominent in one aspect.

The onset of the disease is closely related to the patient's bad personality. The patient's personality is often timid, lacking in security, unconfident, unreliant, overly attached to others, overly concerned about others, lacking a strong self, etc. The bad personality is often closely related to the family education and upbringing methods.

Undifferentiated schizophrenia refers to patients whose mental symptoms meet the diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia and have obvious psychotic symptoms, such as hallucinations, delusions, fragmented thinking or serious behavioral disorders, but whose clinical characteristics are not suitable for being classified as delusional, juvenile or catatonic types.

Undifferentiated schizophrenia is actually a form of schizophrenia. The manifestation of undifferentiated schizophrenia is mainly because it is not so typical. It has symptoms of delusions, hallucinations, emotional symptoms, and symptoms of volitional behavior. However, from a clinical perspective of treatment efficacy, its treatment effect is worse than that of patients with delusional, paranoid and delusional schizophrenia. However, many patients with undifferentiated schizophrenia can be cured, but they must receive standardized treatment.
