prodromal, acute, and residual.

Explanation:

Schizophrenia is an endogenous psychiatric disease characterized by loss of contact with reality. One can be closed in on oneself, with the lost gaze, indifferent to everything that goes on around or, the most classic examples, have hallucinations and delusions. She hears voices no one else hears and imagines being the victim of a diabolical plot plotted with the firm purpose of destroying her. There is no argument or common sense to convince you otherwise.

The onset of schizophrenia may occur suddenly or may take several months / years to completely progress to the disorder. When the latter occurs, a person usually goes through the phases called prodromal, acute, and residual.

The phase called prodromal is characterized by nonspecific symptoms such as changes in sleep, depressed mood, isolation, anxiety and hyperactivity. The acute phase involves the attempt to alleviate delusions, hallucinations, formal changes in thought and behavior. In the terminal phase social isolation, eccentric behavior, inappropriate emotions, hypoactivity and illogical thoughts can occur.
