Rethinking Schizophrenia - New Perspective on Disorders | Matcheri Keshavan | TEDxHopkinton HS Youth

In this fascinating TEDx talk, Matcheri Keshavan challenges the conventional understanding of schizophrenia, arguing that the term itself is both stigmatizing and inaccurate. He proposes a radical shift in how we view the condition, suggesting that schizophrenia should be reimagined as part of a broader spectrum of brain disorders rather than a singular, fixed diagnosis. Keshavan advocates for reconsidering the language surrounding mental health, even proposing the possibility of a new name for the condition, one that reflects its complexity and range of symptoms. Through this rethinking, he hopes to reduce the stigma and encourage a more nuanced, compassionate approach to diagnosis, treatment, and support of those affected by the disorder.
