In lieu of the tragic events in the past week in Sydney, Australia, with the deaths of six people due to a stabbing attack by a man with unmedicated Schizophrenia, journalist Georgia Cassimatis discusses this mental disorder with her Dad, a Psychiatrist with 50 years experience: Schizophrenia having been a specialty in his practice.  A serious mental disorder, this is one where people interpret reality abnormally, which can result in a combination of hallucinations, delusions, and extremely disordered thinking that if not treated properly can be detrimental, sadly to the individual and to the community.  Dr Cassimatis explains exactly what Schizophrenia is, how as a society we can better understand it, treat it and work together a community to prevent the illness taking over. Please note, that while 1 in 500 people in Australia have Schizophrenia, fatal attacks are low.
