Living a full-life with schizophrenia requires medication prescribed by a psychiatrist, along with excellent management by the patient and team supporting the individual. Schizophrenia is a chronic mental health condition, and no cure currently exists. With the right medication, good management of medications, and counseling/psychotherapy, a person can live a productive life.
