Hi, guys. A relative of mine has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I haven’t seen him yet. However, I am really interested in whether these patients are dangerous for their environment or not. What can you tell me about this? I would really appreciate all your replies considering my post. Bye, folks.
Hello, there. You shouldn’t worry a lot. Mostly, people with schizophrenia are not dangerous for their environment. This is especially valid if they take their medications regularly. Only a small percentage of these patients get dangerous when experiencing an acute episode. This is mostly because they feel fear. They become aggressive. This is usually expressed towards family members and friends. They don’t express this to the strangers. I hope this helps you. Bye!
