    Positive symptoms of schizophrenia

    Explanation:

    The Positive symptoms of schizophrenia are more highly exaggerated related to ideas, perception and the reality of an environment. In the positive symptoms, the person is not able to discriminate between reality what is happening and what is not. The positive means to present and negative means to absent.

    There are many positive symptoms of schizophrenia such as:

    Thus here in the above context, Andrea has persistent delusion about that she is the Virgin Mary that indicates her positive symptoms of schizophrenia.
