"I am interested in knowing if there are programs out there for people with schizophrenia that do more than just medications. I'm not exactly looking for therapy. I'm looking for a certain type of treatment that will get a person who has been medicated for over thirty years but just sits around and doesn't want to do anything. Is there any help (or even hope) for a schizophrenic in this condition?"

Thank you for your question.
