In Switzerland, one person in 100 is affected by schizophrenia

One in every 100 people in Switzerland is affected by schizophrenia. 85% of psychotic disorders occur between the ages of 15 and 25, and on average, young people are diagnosed 2 to 4 years after the first symptoms appear. Fear or denial of the illness is the main cause. From March 19 to 26, Schizophrenia Days focus on the early identification of psychosis.
