Schizophrenia is a brain disorder that affects how people think, feel, perceive, and behave. It is a profound, severe, lifelong disorder. The hallmark symptom of schizophrenia is psychosis, such as experiencing auditory hallucinations (the false sensation of hearing voices that are not present) and delusions (fixed false beliefs). Impaired cognition or a disturbance in information processing is an underappreciated symptom that interferes with day-to-day life.
