180 schizophrenics at the age from 19 to 87 (49,4±1,1) including 77 women and 103 men found legally incompetent by court were surveyed by the clinical-psychopathological and psychometrical methods. The comparative study was carried out for two groups of patients: the ones living at home (the first group) and the patients that were at the stage of preparing for going to a psychoneurological institution for social security (the second group). It was found the second group patient had more expressed level of social maladjustment than the patients in the first group. The social maladjustment was connected with early start of the endogenetic processes that was the cause their parents abandoned them. The main factor preventing such patients to live at home was their aggressive behavior. Such patients were hospitalized at various times on a voluntary basis with psychopathic-like symptoms and signs: the main part of them (73,2 %) misused alcohol and 62,4% had a negative milieu (personals with criminal history, people misused alcohol and psychoactive substances, religious bigots). In the article some approaches to psycho-pharmacotherapy, psychosocial therapy and rehabilitation were discussed.
