Hello! This week, we delve into the fascinating history of how we conceptualize psychosis and schizophrenia. All those with schizophrenia have psychosis, but not all those with psychosis have schizophrenia. From a psychological framework to a biological one, the field of psychiatry has gone back and forth between the two and really struggled to understand schizophrenia. Now, we are just starting to see the interplay between genetic, epigenetic, environmental, and psychological factors at play in the risk of developing schizophrenia.
This was quite a daunting topic to talk about since it is an area filled with uncertainty. But we have some direction, looking for symptoms that are more specific to schizophrenia. Join us in this whirlwind of conversation by two child psychiatrists trying to tackle this colossal topic!
