Patients with schizophrenia develop symptoms such as hallucinations (see or hear unreal things), delusions (false beliefs) and become withdrawn from society. They lose the ability to differentiate reality from false beliefs. Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder may occur due to genetic factors, alcohol or drug abuse, mental trauma. Schizophrenia may also occur due to brain injuries or diseases.

Parkinson's disease: Parkinson's disease is a progressive nervous system disorder that affects movement. Symptoms start gradually, sometimes starting with a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand. Tremors are common, but the disorder also commonly causes stiffness or slowing of movement.
