Schizophrenia

Schizophrenia is a severe and disabling mental disorder. A person with schizophrenia might see or hear things that others don’t, have bizarre beliefs, and suspect that others are plotting against him because he has a special mission in the world. Schizophrenia can be treated with medicines.

If you or someone close to you has schizophrenia, you will be able to find support and information from our online support group for schizophrenia.

Ayurveda can be used with allopathy. you can even try along with homeopathy-but be careful as homeopathy will interact with allopathy, as homeopathy treats mind and body as one.i am speaking from personal experience of a family member

Hypofunction of glutamatergic neurons has been hypothesized to caused schizophrenia. For example, see conclusions from the symposium entitled, "Not Just Dopamine Any More: Emerging Glutamatergic Therapies for Schizophrenia,"
Calcium deficiency may be a predisposing or causative factor in schizophrenia ?
This concept is based on the demonstration that „NMDA receptor hypofunction“ can be based on calcium-deficiency, potentiated by nutritional hypoproteinemia - chapter “Hyperfunction (Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson disease) and hypofunction (schizophrenia) of glutamatergic neurons”.

I am looking for a Schizophrenia Support Group to help my 51 year old son who seems to get no help. His father had Chromosome 17 Dis-inhibition, Dementia, Parkinson disease, Atrophy Complex which has been 50% inherited. It was thought until Dec, 2008 that my son had this disorder, however it was diagnosed as Paranoid Schizophrenia then. My son is very sick and I can't seem to get help anywhere.

Search with google "latest on schizophrenia" you will get many scientific guidance. I know what a pain it is for a family to have someone with schizophrenia. Good luck
