only 30% of people with psuchotic illness have symptoms that
meet the criteria for schizophrenia
What remains is the paradox that 30% of psychotic illness morbidity
is portrayed as a discrete bain disease; the other 70% of the motbidity
is comminicated only in classification manuals.
The best way to inform the public and proivide patients with diagnoses,
therefore, is to forget about "devastating" schizophrenia as the only category
that matters abd start doing justice to the broad and
heterogeberous psychosis spectrum syndrome that really exists.
