"Schizophrenia"

Information and discussion relating to this label which has fallen out of favor (see link to ISPS).

In what could be a very significant update, "hearing voices" may have been removed from the DSM-5 as being sufficient by itself to justify a diagnosis of schizophrenia (it's not clear that this is the case. We are still waiting verification). (Article date unknown.)

Here is a link to the ICD-10 definition of "schizophrenia."
