• The newest neural diathesis-stress model states that the risk of having schizophrenia comes from several factors like genetics, outside influences like substance abuse, and previous trauma. Along with these factors, stress could also be added in the cases that it heightens the individuals’ psychosis.
• Those who suffer from these precursors can have their overall health monitored or be given personalized care/care plans to keep a handle on their health. As the model shows increased stress can worsen the symptoms of schizophrenia and one’s overall health. With these plans in place, it would be better to keep these individuals calmer and less stressed than to send them into episodes.
• I think it would depend on the severity of their disorder. I think there should be better regulations on buying firearms in general but I think that those who have presented violent symptoms should not be allowed to purchase them. I don’t think that they should be kept from voting because they have probably already been doing it before their symptoms manifested or got worse. I think overall it just depends on the severity of their disorder.

The newest neural diathesis-stress model of schizophrenia says that the risk of getting the condition is higher because of a mix of biological factors like genetics, psychological weaknesses like trauma and bad childhood experiences, and outside influences like drug abuse.

Individuals differ in their sensitivity and stress levels, which can have a significant impact on their health and well-being. To address this, the concept of tailoring treatment to suit each person’s unique needs has gained prominence. By doing so, healthcare professionals can provide more effective and personalized care to their patients. Moreover, early intervention is crucial in preventing the disease burden and associated stress from escalating. Identifying and treating health issues at an early stage can help individuals maintain their physical and mental well-being, leading to a better quality of life.

In my opinion, it is wrong to argue that people with schizophrenia should have their rights restricted. Individuals with schizophrenia are entitled to civil rights and accommodations as needed. Limits should only be set when necessary, without compromising rights or dignity. The new model emphasizes the necessity of individualized treatment and early intervention in schizophrenia management.
