What is Schizophrenia?

Schizophrenia is a serious psychiatric illness. It’s relatively rare and includes a combination of symptoms. These symptoms are usually grouped into categories:

Positive Symptoms

Also known as psychotic symptoms, positive symptoms are things that are abnormally present when a person has schizophrenia. Examples include hallucinations, delusions, and movement disorders. 

Negative Symptoms

These are abnormally absent things. These symptoms relate to a loss of interest in enjoyment in day-to-day life and a loss of motivation. Social withdrawal can also be part of the negative symptoms of schizophrenia. 

Cognitive Symptoms

Cognition-related symptoms typically involve concentration, attention, and memory. It can be difficult for someone with schizophrenia to process information for decision-making or focus and pay attention. 

Treatment for Schizophrenia

While schizophrenia is serious and is a chronic, life-long mental health condition, treatment helps many people live fulfilling, independent lives. The goals of schizophrenia treatment programs include symptom management, improving functionality in daily life, and achieving personal goals, such as in a career or relationships. 

  • Medication can be a foundational part of a schizophrenia treatment plan. Medicines like antipsychotics can reduce symptom frequency and intensity. 
  • There are psychosocial treatments that help identify solutions to everyday challenges. These are usually paired with medicines. 
  • Behavioral skills training and talk therapy are also helpful parts of treatment plans for schizophrenia, as are education and support for loved ones. 

Schizophrenia Treatment at Midwest Recovery Centers

We practice person-centric care at Midwest Recovery Centers. This means we create individualized treatment plans taking into consideration each person’s unique needs on every level—mentally, physically, spiritually, and emotionally. We want to help our patients achieve a true sense of well-being in every part of their lives. Our 45-day mental health programs are not acute hospitalization. This would come before you would receive treatment with us, and then we would prepare you or your loved one to re-enter daily life. Our residential mental health programs are comprehensive, and we follow a step-down model in terms of intensity. This means you begin with a very intensive treatment program, which becomes gradually less intense as you’re ready. In order to achieve the most favorable outcomes for each patient, our therapy and medical teams use a holistic treatment approach that can incorporate many modalities, like:
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
  • Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
  • Somatic Experiencing
  • Hypnotherapy
  • Psychoeducational groups
  • Experiential groups
  • Spiritual psychology
  • Process groups
  • Mindfulness
  • Creative writing
  • Art therapy
  • Yoga
  • Exercise therapy
  • Self-care strategies
  • Learning coping mechanisms
We might also include Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation or TMS, which is a noninvasive approach to stimulating nerve cells in various areas of the brain. Light therapy is used in the treatment of Seasonal Affective Disorder, and our programs include education and guidance from a Registered Dietitian to help with nutritional and gut health needs. Our medication management at Midwest Recovery Centers is driven by advanced science. We use pharmacogenomics or PGx testing. This looks at each patient’s DNA to determine how they’re likely to process a particular medication and the potential risks of side effects.

What To Expect at Midwest Recovery Centers

Some of the things you can expect to be included in schizophrenia treatment with us during our structured 45-day programs include:

  • Holistic healing treats the whole person rather than focusing only on their symptoms. Addressing physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental health promotes long-lasting well-being. 
  • A residential environment that’s safe and supportive without triggers or stressors of daily life. 
  • Preparation so that patients are ready to successfully transition back to living independently, empowered with strategies and tools for their mental health and overall sense of wellness. 
  • Ongoing support even after the end of a 45-day program, including continued contact with therapists and case managers. 
  • Family programs, when appropriate, help with education about schizophrenia and helping a loved one with the condition.
