I got a tasked to find an information about mental illness which is more specific about Schizophrenia, its sign and symptom and type of Schizophrenia. The interesting is I successfully found an article regarding Schizophrenia: the most serious psychotic disorders written by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Azizi Hj. Yahaya. I understand more about Schizophrenic pt when I read this journal. It tell me how the pt felt during the event and I can imagine the experience that the pt face even it is not real. The fact is Schizophrenia cannot be treated and it was hereditary. Symptoms of Schizophrenia are different for each individual that experienced it and not all the symptoms are required for the doctor to diagnose the person to have Schizophrenia. The symptom can be category into positive and negative symptom. Most common positive symptoms are delusions and hallucinations. As an OT student I had a big role in helping the pt that suffer with Schizophrenia such as by giving them education in ADL training and also return to work preparation.
Through this task I learn how to appreciate the life that God give to us. Knowledge that I gained here will be applied in my daily life now and in the future. I'm looking forward to gain more knowledge in many fields so that one day I could help people who need my service as an OT and I'll try my best to give them the appropriate treatment and intervention.
What I learn throughout this task :
- find the suitable journal related with my topic ( because I always face a problem to find the journal)
- get more knowledge about Schizophrenia sign and symptom, and also the real condition that the pt face
- link the journal. Feel quite loser about this but at least I tried. Sorry Dr. Saz, I'll learn more about it.
- appreciate life.
