associative looseness, the blunted affect, ambivalence and the autistic thinking.
Paranoid schizophrenia is the most common type of schizophrenia in most parts of the
world. The clinical picture is dominated by relatively stable, often paranoid, delusions usually
Disturbances of affect, volition and speech, and catatonic symptoms are not prominent.
the central focus is on distorted perceptions or paranoid behavior and thinking. Delusions are
With paranoid schizophrenia, the ability to think and function in daily life is better
compare with other types of schizophrenia. It may not have as many problems with memory,
Those individuals who diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia are not especially
prone to violence; often prefer to be alone. Studies show that if people have no record of
criminal violence prior to develop schizophrenia and are not substance abusers, then they are
unlikely to commit crimes after they become ill. Most violent crimes are not committed by
people with paranoid schizophrenia, and most people with schizophrenia do not commit
violent crimes. Substance abuse always increases violent behavior, whether or not the person
has schizophrenia.
If someone with paranoid schizophrenia becomes violent, their violence is most often
directed at family members and takes place at home. These individuals may spend an
extraordinary amount of time thinking about ways to protect themselves from their
persecutors.

In the US paranoid schizophrenia reports issued by Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) for 2000 revealed 121,000 diagnoses of paranoid schizophrenia in non-
Federal, short-stay hospitals (73,000 men and 47,000 women). Most individuals (62,000)
were between the ages of 15 and 44; none were under age 15; 37,000 were between 45 and
64; and 21,000 were 65 or older. According to geographic distribution, the highest prevalence
is in the South and Northeast regions of the US with the lowest prevalence in the West and
The onset of the disorder is usually later than catatonic or disorganized schizophrenia.
Men have earlier onset, and more frequent than women. Women have a bimodal onset with
peaks in their 20’s and early 40’s. One study demonstrated within subtype age of
2003).

result in a relapse. Psychotherapy is used to address the emotional and social issues that result
from paranoid schizophrenia. Group therapy can be especially helpful, because it creates
know different contributing factors in developing the said illness. Perhaps to correct the
misconception of not all people who have mental illness are violent and dangerous. While
this may be true in some cases, the generalization has been made far too widely.
These attitudes contribute to a significant amount of prejudice against the mentally ill,
which may prevent people from seeking help. Stigma may also affect people’s recovery,
contributing to low self-esteem and decreased social contact. In contrast to physical health

developmental perspectives. Freud believes that vulnerable to substance abuse have powerful
dependency needs that can be traced to their early years. They claim that when parents fail to
satisfy a young child’s need for nurturance, the child is likely to grow up depending
excessively on others for help and comfort, trying to find nurturance that was lacking during
their early years. If this search for outside support includes experimentation with a drug, the
person may well develop a dependent relationship with the drug which leads to substance
abuse.
Maslow said that human beings are motivated by unsatisfied needs and that certain
lower need to be satisfied before higher needs can be satisfied. Maslow ties the pre-
occupation use of drugs and the negative effects which result from alcohol/drug addiction. He
says that since addiction is a progressive illness, it destroys a person’s ability to achieve self-
actualization, eventually destroying the person’s ability to meet their other needs including

Theory, The environment is a “booming, buzzing” world of strange sensations that must be
sorted out to determine which are the most important; this sorting is achieved through
communication with other people. The need to communicate is an innate imperative for
human beings. The purpose of nursing is to intervene to support, to maintain, and to augment
survival and growth. According to theory, when the individual's physiological and safety
needs are met, needs for love and belongingness emerge. These needs include longings for an
intimate relationship with another person as well as the need to belong to a group and to feel
accepted. Maslow emphasized that these needs involve both giving and receiving love.

Mang J.M was a member of TAU GAMMA fraternity. Within this fraternity, we can
conclude that he learned to use prohibited drugs, possible experienced hazing and involved in

become violent.

continue talking. By the end of the evening, in spite of excellent coffee, old friends and a
reasonably good movie, you still feel "something" was missing. It was. Each time you

February 2, 2011 when we received our client. He first greeted us with a smile
and initiated to go to the pantry area which was a good thing. We let him
groom himself in the area and after his grooming we proceed to the canteen
for their activity. The place was clean and the seats were arranged semi circle
facing the table where the facilitators will do their demonstration of the
activity.

They were oriented in time, place and date and the procedure of the
activity were explained very clearly for the benefit of orderliness of the
activity. A brief conversation and review were conducted after the activity to
assess what he had learned and to check his recent memory. At around 4:00
pm, we returned our client to his dorm after the therapy and the conversation.
We received our client wearing his own set of wrinkled dirty white
Boysen shirt and green patterned shorts which was the same two weeks ago.
He greeted us with a smile and initiated to go to the pantry room. His gait is
moderate and was looking to the floor at times. He brushed his teeth very hard
and requested a cologne and powder to finish his grooming session. After that,
we accompany him to the activity area and noticed that he was very excited
participating and behaved well. He was serious and focused himself to the
procedures. He was able to compute the total price of all the ingredients used
in the food festival. After the program, we conducted a brief session to review
