You can answer any/all of these questions. Take your pick! 
I hope this thread can be of help to people. These are genuine questions I've wondered about and would love to ask people who have personal experience with schizophrenia. If you know a loved one who has this then PLEASE feel free to share your input.

Some questions might be personal and triggering. These ones are marked with exclamation marks (!). If you feel uncomfortable then don't feel obligated to answer. Other questions might be off-topic and are only to gain your unique perspective on things / to get to know you better - :)

Thank you!
