According to the DSM-5, (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition) Schizophrenia is a disorder in which a person will experience gross deficits in reality testing, manifested with at least two or more the following symptoms, which must be present for at least one month (unless treatment produces symptom remission):


At least one symptom collectively referred to as positive symptoms: must be in categories 1, 2, or 3,

  1. Delusions- strange beliefs and ideas which are resistant to rational/logical dispute or contradiction from others.
  2. Hallucinations- typically auditory, or less frequently, visual.
  3. Disorganized Speech- incoherence, irrational content.
  4. Disorganized or Catatonic behavior- repetitive, senseless movements, or adopting a pose which may be maintained for hours. The individual may be resistant to efforts to move them into a different posture, or will assume a new posture they are placed in.
  5. Negative symptoms- flat affect, amotivation, anergia, failure to maintain hygiene (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).

1. Marked reduction in level of functioning in one or more areas, such as occupational, social, or personal care or hygiene . If symptom onset occurs during childhood or adolescence, there is inability to reach age-typical functioning in academic, social or interpersonal areas. 2. Symptoms must persist at least six months, during which at least one month of symptoms (unless treatment produces symptom remission) meet the criteria for positive symptoms and may include periods of prodromal or residual symptoms. During prodromal or residual periods, the signs of the disturbance may be manifested by negative symptoms or by two or more positive symptoms present in a less prominent form (e.g.,unusual beliefs or perceptions). 3.Schizoaffective disorder and depressive or bipolar disorder with psychotic features have been ruled out. 4 The psychotic episode cannot be attributed to substance use (ethanol withdrawal, cocaine abuse) or a medical condition. 5. If autism spectrum disorder or a communication disorder of childhood onset has been previously diagnosed, the diagnosis of schizophrenia is made only if prominent delusions or hallucinations, in addition to the other symptoms of schizophrenia, are present for at least one month, excluding successful treatment (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).


If symptoms have persisted for one year, and if there are no contradictory diagnostic criteria, the clinician may include specifiers:


1. First episode, currently in acute episode: First apparent onset of the disorder as defined by the above diagnostic criteria. 2. First episode, currently in partial remission: First apparent onset of the disorder with a period of improvement in which the symptoms are only partially present. 3. First episode, currently in full remission: Absence of apparent symptoms after a first episode. 4. Multiple episodes, currently in acute episode: 5. Two or more episodes, current one acute. 6. Multiple episodes, currently in partial remission


7. Multiple episodes, currently in full remission 8. Continuous: maintenance of symptoms fulfilling the diagnostic symptom criteria for the majority of time. 8. Unspecified- With catatonia 9. Current severity: Severity can be rated by a quantitative assessment of positive and negative symptoms on a Five point Likert scale for the previous seven days- e.g.- zero- absent to Four, present and severe. (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).

Constantly accuse drow of being niggers and orcs of being spics. Go into a frothing rage about there not being wheelchair-accessible dungeons. Offer to use your fire magic to start a campfire and then choose one of the other party members and scream “DON’T FUCKING LOOK AT ME!!!” before starting the fire
 
You have to be totally convinced that your delusions are real in every sense; maybe even beyond real. And you must stand by and staunchly defend that conviction at every turn: regardless of consequence. A key marker of schizophrenia is that the intense irrational paranoia causes significant disruption in the ability of the sufferer and their surroundings to live peaceful lives.
 
I used to play a pacifist monk fighter with really low charisma who tried to say poignant zen koans but was just absolute dogshit at it. In reality I was just generating a bunch of fake motivational posters on inspirobot.me and reading them out loud.

Pick one peculiar and distinctive thing for him to fixate on, and try and make him turn every conversation toward discussing that thing. Like Lucas Werner with his telomeres.
