From Longman Dictionary

schiz‧o‧phre‧ni‧a /ˌskɪtsəʊˈfriːniə, -sə- $ -soʊ-, -sə-/ noun [uncountable]

a serious mental illness in which someone’s thoughts and feelings are not based on what is really happening around them

Example

Both schizophrenia and mood disorders show evidence of decreased activity in frontal lobes and abnormal function of the system for directed attention

Thus diseases like diabetes, schizophrenia, and obesity were rare in the developed world by 2010

In essential schizophrenia the characteristic pattern is of withdrawal from the impacts of experience in the outside world

This may well lead to the development of more effective drugs for schizophrenia

Next month’s summit-at-sea may see a resolution of the Bush Administration’s schizophrenia over Moscow
