Schizophrenia Relapse Beyond Medication
Description
A new study from Stellenbosch University reveals that schizophrenia relapse isn’t just about medication or substance use—it’s fueled by a toxic mix of crime, poverty, stigma, and crumbling healthcare systems. Patients in high-violence communities often skip appointments out of fear, while unstable housing, hunger, and lack of transport make consistent care impossible. Overburdened clinics, early discharges, and even medication shortages compound the crisis. True recovery demands a holistic approach: stronger mental health infrastructure, safer neighborhoods, and cross-sector support to break the cycle of hopelessness.
