Schizophrenia (for Joyner project)

This blog is for a project that we are doing. During the Holocaust they did not just kill the Jewish people they were also against people that had mental illnesses. Schizophrenia's symptoms are:

-hearing voices

-delusions

-illusions

Delusions are when you believe something that is completely not true and you think it is the truth. During this time there was a study that came out that this disease could be passed down to their children. When the Nazis heard of this they started bringing people in to sterilize them. This means that they would never be able to have children. One of the survivors was in a interview and they said it was very hard to come to terms with the fact that they would never be able to have a family of their own. There are many other things that I could talk about in this blog but for the sake of time I won't. Thanks for reading!
