Why do people with schizophrenia have shifted their focus to life goals rather than treatment goals?

I'm doing an Anthropology project and this question i just can't have an idea to answer it?") please just give an idea?..

It's fairly widely accepted that schizophrenia isn't something that is typically recovered from after short, discrete treatment. People tend to have to cope with it, and rarely if ever truly recover from it.

There is also the issue of fairly high rates of suicide among people with schizophrenia. In this case, having long-term life goals is a more positive way to keep people looking ahead. If you call it treatment goals, people will seem to be in treatment forever, which can be stigmatizing and disempowering.

I'd compare schizophrenia to losing a limb. You can find ways to cope with having lost it, and you can use tools (i.e. prosthetics) to take the place of it, but you'll never really recover from it.

There uncontrolled and unpredictable thoughts is what controls there lives, when someone isn't thinking clearly they defiantly are not thinking about getting treatment. Having schizophrenia is a something one learns to live with, and can function if they take their meds as directed. Many schizophrenics turn to Alcohol to stop the delusion thoughts. Think of a drug addict or a young teenager diagnosed with diabetes following their treatment plan is a difficult task, no imagine someone who's thoughts are irrational the treatment task is that much harder. I know a lot of people think someone who is mentally ill can just take a few pills and lie on a sofa and talk it out and then their normal again, but it's just not that simple.

It's hard to treat or recover from Schizophrenia. It is much easier to learn to deal with life. They just want to go on as normal as possible, worrying about treatments that may or may not work (many treatments make them depressed anyway) are useless. Who wants to focus on their diseases really?
