   • Hallucinations. When a person with schizophrenia has hallucinations, they see, hear, smell, or taste things that don’t exist. But to that person, what they see, hear, smell, or taste is very real.
   • Delusions. While often named together, delusions are different from hallucinations. Delusions are false beliefs about things that may seem strange or illogical to others.
   • Disorganized thinking. When thinking is “disorganized,” it means that it’s hard for someone with schizophrenia to keep their thoughts or speech in order.
   • Concentration and memory problems. Cognitive difficulties are another common sign of schizophrenia, though admittedly, these can occur in various other conditions, too.
