Schizophrenia: fear of death

The science includes the method of hypothesizing.


First, a scientific hypothesis is testable. How can your idea be tested?

Secondly, after the formulation of the testable hypothesis, the actual testing follows. Preferably with a control group according to scientific protocols.
Third, comes the writing of a paper in which you detail the experiment, the methods used, the potential problems with it and follow that up with the results of the experiment and then formulate a conclusion.
Fourth, comes the submitting of said paper to an appropriate journal where it will receive a first evaluation through peer review to see if it is up to standards for publication.
Fifth, comes actual publication.
Sixth, readers of said journal (more peers, around the world this time) read and evaluate the paper, perhaps repeat the experiment or build further on it. They repeat this entire process.

After all that is done and if the community of the field accepts the results by consensus after heavily scrutinizing the entire thing from all angles, then you have a hypothesis that gets promoted to theory.


You have done none of this.
Instead, you seem to have skipped all 6 steps and jumped straight to pretending as if your idea has any merrit.
You haven't even bothered to formally formulate your idea in testable form to make it worthy of the name "hypothesis".

As usually, this is just one big bad joke.

I see no reason to disagree with my explanation of schizoid. Behind all symptoms is fear of death. The person with the fear of death becomes crazy and kills himself.

I don't disagree that fear of death can be one aspect, but i do know there is much, much more to schizophrenia thsn you give it credit for

Jesus saw the angel by the way. There was extremely fear of death, and the angel has come. The main aspect of schizophrenia are the visions.

That is your schizophrenia, your mind is susceptible to what you want to believe. Many schizophrenics have different visual hallucinations than you do and many are also plagued with auditory hallucinations. One thing for sure, the reason schizophrenia is so difficult to diagnose is there are many different effects.

May i make a suggestion...

If you get the chance watch the film "Words of bathroom walls".

It is very enlightening.

Patients do not describe their states as fear of death, or as a fear in general, because we have no access to what is happening in sub-mind.

I think psychiatrists who treat schizophrenia every day have a far wider view of the symptoms of schizophrenia than you.
If (as you seem to be saying) that the fear of death is the main problem schizophrenics have to face then please tell my why the suicide rate is so high among those suffering from schizophrenia? As i said earlier there are many who would embrace death.

The antidote to fear is faith, right? And it seems you have faith. So why not ask God to remove your fears?
It is absolutely not healthy to die.

the religion comforts the soul, but not so much the bodily part of a human. He notices the aging of the skin; the physical health and career possibilities are rapidly declining with age. The fear of death in sub-consciousness drives the sensitive person crazy.

Because the fear has broken the person. The person has lost the ability to think rationally. To fear is not healthy life style. The Schizophrenia is the background fear, that cannot yet be completely removed by current level of medicine.
