Consultation topic: How is schizophrenia detected and diagnosed?

Patient's age: 35 Patient's sex: Female patient's city: Puyang City, Henan Province Suffering from diseases: Schizophrenia symptoms: What are the symptoms of schizophrenia? What kind of hospital should I go to and what kind of tests should I do to confirm and prove? Hello, what I want to ask is, how was schizophrenia detected and diagnosed? Does this disease need to go through some tests and pass scientific certification before it can be diagnosed? Because I found, I saw that there was a hospital in our psychiatric department, and someone went. The doctor asked a few questions about his normal life, and then he was in a hurry to prescribe medicine, saying that people had depression, so he prescribed medicine, probably for the treatment of depression. When I saw this scene, I felt a little scary, because the doctor even said that if you go on like this for a long time, I think you are still a little schizophrenic, and you have to treat schizophrenia. I was shocked because I felt that I was almost the same as that child. Am I really schizophrenic? . I just want to ask, because I accompanied my mother to see a doctor, did I have any mental problems in my later years, such as schizophrenia? But I don't want my mother to confirm why she is mentally ill at once and take medicine seriously. So I want to ask you how to diagnose this mental illness, how to diagnose it, how to prove it and how to treat it, so as to make this medical treatment more scientific.
