Treatment Options for Schizophrenia

We often have people express their uncertainty when it comes to their options for treating and managing schizophrenia. Of course, the first step is always to speak with your doctor about developing a treatment plan, but in this video we outline some of the potential treatment options you could discuss with your doctor. We also list some of the more psychosocial interventions which you can work on addressing with your doctor, as well as on your own.
