I am very personal about Schizophrenic's, I am not, but I am ADD, and know what it feels like. And I would like to tell you that it is a disorder, for lack of a better word, and you should take it the same way a another disorder. Would you say somebody with down syndrome was demon possessed. It may be different, but they are both disorders, and are meant to be treated the same way.

Depends on how you look at it. If a schizophrenic person appeared in the Bible then the people would probably think he was possessed. No one had any other name to call it back then. Now we have research a data to tell us this person suffers from a mental disorder. Who is not to say that either one of the scenarios is the devils work. If I were the devil and I wanted to harm someone I wouldn't put a big. "I'm possessed by demons" sign on the persons forehead. Just like God if you have some sort of life changing experience. Like you survive a significant car accident or survive a terminal illness. A Christian might say "That is God's work, thank the Lord." Then an atheist of doctor might say "You just got lucky" or "You recovered because we caught it and treated it in time" These are the same scenarios seen thorough the eyes of very different people. So really it is all what one chooses to believe.

No , they are just poor pathetic people who have become sick along their paths in life. The Schizophrenic patients feel like they are living in Hell. I have seen the behavior and they are suffering. Sometimes they realize sanity from in-sane and it is the most cruel sickness. I have asked God why? Why do people suffer like this? It isn't because God has done this to them and there are no Demons. But a very severe illness that has struck these poor souls. There is a promise, that when we leave this Earth, all bad things will pass away. The sick will be made well. Some people suffer on this earth, but when their lives have ended , it will all be better in Heaven.

There may be a degree of demon possession in a person suffering from clinically diagnosed schizophrenia. Most are not capable in this day and age to discern a demon possessed person from a person who may actually have a chemical imbalance.

In biblical times, I suppose schizo behavior would seem to be demon possession. Too bad Jesus isn't here now to cure with a touch, huh? Better than a lifetime of medications, but the meds are much better than the alternative.

A schizophrenic is one that has a mental illness like a psychotic or neurotic. It is caused by some type of chemical imbalance.

No they have a chemical imbalance in their brains.
It's body chemistry not demon posession.
Noone can prove demonic posession, although discovery channel and the sci fi channel tries - still unproven.
Schizophrenia is a mental illness which can be managed by drug therapy.

My church tried to trick me right into a deliverance. They pronounced i grow to be demon possessed too. (clinically determined Bipolar). the way I see it they have been incorrect to aim and trick me. if that they have been in strengthen with me then i might probable have allowed them. fairly, that grow to be the top of my fellowship with them. i think of its completely attainable that there is a few sort of generational spirit or perhaps though it is a element of my "bipolar disease"... yet i might ought to have countless have faith to enable somebody dabble in attempting to EVICT even though it is. So I take my meds and cope. some days are greater useful than others. while you're thinking of dealing with a "deliverance" then be careful and permit purely experienced human beings to minister to you. make advantageous they have a save on with up plan. you'll want help AFTER the deliverance to relearn the thank you to look at existence. And surely, i might save on taking my meds for no less than 6 months and then VERY SLOWLY taper off... And tell your rfile what is going on! in simple terms be careful. A relapse may be so very stressful.

No. It is truly a medical condition. Demons have been banned from this world for hundreds of years.
