Experts aren’t sure why, but many people confuse schizophrenia with dissociative personality disorder, which is when someone has two or more identities or personalities. Schizophrenia may cause hallucinations or delusions, but it does not create multiple personalities.Movies and other media may make it seem like having schizophrenia makes you unstable and likely to harm others, but having the disorder doesn’t make you more prone to violence.
It’s not a given that having the disorder makes you smarter or less smart than others without it.In the past, when schizophrenia wasn’t as well-understood, people with the condition were often sent away so they wouldn’t be a “danger” to society. But advances in medications and a better understanding of mental illness now mean you can find the treatment and therapy you need while living and working in the community.
