I worked in an outpatient clinic for adults with chronic mental illness. Schizophrenic clients made up a large part of my caseload. Usually the onset of Schizophrenia tends to occur in 20's to early 30's. If a family member has Schizophrenia, then the genetic component could be passed down through the generations, but again, the onset wouldn't be seen until early adulthood.
