How is Liza's Syndrome related to schizophrenia?
Schizophrenia is the chronic mental disorder that Liza has. It means people hear and see things that aren't there, they have numbness in their arms or legs, they have hallucinations, they believe other people are trying to harm them or trying to control them (paranoia), and they may also believe others can read their minds.
What is her medical treatment like for schizophrenics?
In the early stages of the illness, when anti-psychotic medications and sometimes electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) aren't effective, schizophrenic patients are treated with medication and psychological treatment (such as group therapy or talking therapy). After that, they might need to stay in a hospital or clinic.
What is the outlook for people with schizophrenia?
Schizophrenics are often able to lead fulfilling lives. The most successful treatments for the illness are long-term treatments of anti-psychotic medications and psychological therapy (like cognitive behavioral therapy) along with support from family, friends, and health care professionals.
What is it like to have Liza's Syndrome? Is it like having schizophrenia?
No. Schizophrenia is an illness that affects your mental state - so people with schizophrenia usually experience hallucinations, delusions, and other symptoms that keep them from leading a normal life. Liza's Syndrome, on the other hand, is a set of symptoms that many people have. Often we don't recognize them as being symptoms of mental illness because they aren't always severe. Many of us have these symptoms anyway and simply call them normal stress or personality traits - which they can be!
Why do you think so many people think Liza has schizophrenia?
Because she is at high risk of developing schizophrenia and people are looking for explanations for her behavior. For example, her behavior could be due to drug or alcohol abuse. But many people, who haven't made track of their drug use or have never been in rehab, have the potential to have schizophrenia. This is because not everyone who smokes pot or has a few drinks will develop schizophrenia.
Why do you think she will end up developing schizophrenia?
Many celebrities are at high risk for developing schizophrenia including Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, and Jim Morrison. Liza shows symptoms of it primarily because of what she has been through growing up with her mother and trying to escape her mother's shadow throughout her life by acting in films and Broadway shows. She dropped out of high school at 15 which is another risk factor for developing the illness.
Conclusion
During the course of her lifetime, Liza Minnelli has endured many health problems and we can assume that she will continue to for the rest of her life, even as she ages. We do not know if Liza Minnelli is mentally ill or if she is suffering from what some people call a "narcissistic personality disorder," - but either way, it would be wise to get some medical help, as serious symptoms of mental illness are exacerbated by life-long drug and alcohol use.
