What Is Paranoid Psychophrenia?

Paranoid schizophrenia is the most common type of schizophrenia. The age of onset was later than other types. At the beginning of the disease, it is sensitive and suspicious, and gradually develops into delusion, and there is a tendency to generalize. The content of delusion is increasingly divorced from reality. May be accompanied by a combination of hallucinations and hallucinations. Emotions and behaviors are often dominated by hallucinations and delusions, showing suspiciousness, fear, and even self-harming and hurting behavior. The development of this type of disease is slower than other types, and the phenomenon of mental decline is less obvious. There are fewer spontaneous remissions, but the treatment is better.
