Description

For individuals struck with the disorder, schizophrenia is a life-shattering event which curtails careers, breaks up families, forefends any possibility of financial stability, leads to severe physiological, psychological and social impairments, and, in many cases (up to 15% of schizophrenics according to some studies) to death through suicide (APA, 1997; Carter and Flesher, 1995; Wyatt, et al., 1996). Schizophrenia's impact reaches beyond just schizophrenics and their immediate families. The Split Brain is for the families, the patients and for the constant search for meaning in the madness.
