This is a story of terrifying a whiz that attacks healthy youths and young grownups that robs them of past, present, future even life itself. Schizophrenia and depression are about the most complicated and fascinating diseases that we can have. Both of depression and schizophrenia are brain diseases that express themselves in terms of disturbances of thinking, perception and behaviour. Paranoia, hallucination, emotional fear of victims of schizophrenia is a terrifying journey. Depression is nothing but a mental disease which can easily drive people crazy. Crazy? Yes, crazy!
Don’t believe me? Just take an example of the Los Vegas’ shooter who killed about 159 people while attending a concert. According to the earlier police report, he was mentally depressed.
Now a day, depression is very common all across the world and it’s still spreading like jungle fire. Depression is actually nothing but hopelessness to express feelings of sad mood. People face the worst depression and intense feelings of sorrow, loneliness and sadness.
Negative symptoms may present as a phenotype of depression in schizophrenia. Neuroleptics can induce akinesia and akathisia which mimics depression in schizophrenia.
