When I received response for my quarry, "schizophrenic" a word appeared.?

I did a little research and there is alot on the subject but I thought this may help you to understand. It is an illness though.

Perceptual changes turn the world of the ill person topsy-turvy. Sensory messages to the brain from the eyes, ears, nose, skin, and taste buds become confused -- and the person may actually hear, see, smell or feel sensations that are not real. These are called hallucinations.

People with schizophrenia will often hear voices. Sometimes the voices are threatening or condemning; they may also give direct orders such as, "kill yourself". There is always a danger that such commands will be obeyed.

People who are ill may also have visual hallucinations -- a door in a wall where no door exists; a lion, a tiger, or a long-dead relative may suddenly appear. Colours, shapes, and faces may change before the person's eyes.

There may also be hypersensitivity to sounds, tastes, and smells. A ringing telephone might seem as loud as a fire alarm bell, or a loved one's voice as threatening as a barking dog. Sense of touch may also be distorted. Someone may literally "feel" their skin is crawling -- or conversely, they may feel nothing, not even pain from a real injury

.

Its a more beautiful way of describing or explaining malady.
