Mental Health Case Study
Ismail was a 25-year-old college student who was brought by past year and had started locking himself in his room. Ismail used to be a good student but had failed his last exams. His mother said that he would often spend hours staring into space. Sometimes he muttered to himself as if he were talking to an imaginary person. Ismail had to be forced to come to the clinic by his parents. At first, he refused to talk to the nurse. After a while he admitted that he believed that his parents and neighbors were plotting to kill him and that the Devil was interfering with his mind. He said he could hear his neighbors talk about him and say nasty things outside his door. He said he felt as if he had been possessed, but did not see why he should come to the clinic since he was not ill.
What’s the problem? Ismail was suffering from a severe mental disorder called schizophrenia. This made him hear voices and imagine things that were not true.
