Summary "The disorder known as schizophrenia, which roughly means 'split mind, ' is one of the most misunderstood mental disorders. People with the condition experience hallucinations and delusions as their brains struggle to interpret various mixed-up signals. Understanding the causes, symptoms, and treatments of schizophrenia will help reduce the stigma surrounding this rare but frightening disorder. The lives of millions of kids are affected by mental illness. And yet it's all too common for kids to feel like they are alone with their problems.
