Irrational beliefs
These false beliefs have no basis in reality. For example, you may believe that you are being harassed or harmed, that some remarks or gestures are directed at you, that you have extraordinary fame or talent, that another person is in love with you, or that a catastrophic event is imminent. The majority of individuals with schizophrenia experience delusions.
These primarily comprise of hearing or seeing nonexistent things. Nevertheless, schizophrenia has the same intensity and impact as a normal experience. Hallucinations may involve any of the senses, but hearing voices is the most common hallucination symptom.
