    The document discusses several biopsychosocial factors that may have contributed to the development of schizophrenia in Mr. Schitz. These include a family history of mental illness, being separated from his father at a young age, trauma during birth, growing up in a single parent home with little social support, and environmental stressors like living in a low socioeconomic area. Mr. Schitz displayed introverted behaviors from a young age and did not form close relationships, which theorists believe can increase the risk of schizophrenia.
