Fortunately, after a period of drug treatment + psychological counseling, the symptoms of auditory hallucination and self-talking have improved a lot;
However, during the hospitalization period, we found that the patient had another discomfort symptoms such as restlessness, dizziness, able to eat, weight gain, etc.
Considering that the child is still young, after a series of examinations, while adjusting the dosage of the child, she was added a physical therapy (transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment) . After a period of treatment, the patient's discomfort symptoms disappeared and schizophrenia was effectively relieved.
pictures are from the Internet, and the transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment technology is a magnetic stimulation technology that uses pulsed magnetic fields to act on the central nervous system (mainly the brain), changes the membrane potential of cortical nerve cells, and makes it produce induced current , affecting the metabolism and nerve electrical activity in the brain, thereby causing a series of physiological and biochemical reactions.
has three major characteristics: painless, non-invasive, and non-destructive. It is widely used in psychiatric and psychological departments (such as depression , schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder , mania, insomnia, etc.), and the effect is very significant.

In the past years, I have actually seen too many schizophrenia patients. When I first diagnosed, many families often asked me a question like this: How long will schizophrenia be cured?
In fact, how long will schizophrenia patients get better? It is necessary to analyze the specific situation in detail and cannot be generalized.
The treatment of schizophrenia is generally divided into three stages, such as acute phase, consolidation phase, and maintenance phase.
pictures are from the Internet, and the acute phase is mainly through drugs or other treatments to quickly control the patient's symptoms, which generally takes 6-8 weeks.
is the consolidation period, maintaining the original dosage or reducing the dosage under the guidance of a doctor, maintaining it for about half a year, and completely controlling the patient's symptoms.
finally continues to maintain at the lowest effective dose for 2 years. If the patient recurs, the maintenance period will be longer.

However, if it is the first time schizophrenia, patients are generally sensitive to the efficacy of the drug. After 3-4 months of treatment, the symptoms are basically relieved, but subsequent maintenance treatment is still required. The specific time depends on the specific condition.
Currently, more and more diagnostic and treatment guidelines tend to be lifelong treatment.
pictures are from the Internet. If you have any relatives around you who have abnormal behaviors, such as talking to yourself, auditory hallucinations, and delusions of being killed, you must go to the hospital as soon as possible. After the diagnosis is clear, you will receive scientific treatment in time and do not be superstitious to avoid delaying the condition.
I am Director Xia of the Psychiatric Department. If your relatives around you have schizophrenia, you can leave a message in the comment area and I will help you!
