Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness characterized by persistent defects in the perception or expression of reality . A person experiencing untreated schizophrenia typically demonstrates grossly disorganized thinking , and may also experience delusions or auditory hallucinations . Although the illness primarily affects cognition , it can also contribute to chronic problems with behavior or emotions . Due to the many possible combinations of symptoms, it is difficult to say whether it is in fact a single psychiatric disorder ; and Eugen Bleuler deliberately called the disease "the schizophrenias," (plural) when he coined the present name.
