You know I get the feeling that you are doing some sort of assignment on this topic??
As to bodily change though you need to be abit more specific - any illness (mental or physical) can cause bodily changes as can any med including natural meds.

Not Sure
Which of these you might be referring ... 1 physical & hormonal changes that occur 18 to 26 & thereby cause schizophrenia to manifest itself for male patients in these early years of life ! 2 it 's a problem of " distortion " when someone sees themselves as less than what they really are example less intelligent, less beautiful, ect 3 many of the antipsychotics cause weight gain some patients up to a hundred pounds or more 4 or perhaps you are asking about catatonic schizophrenia which can involve either side of the coin examples someone who continually paces and or someone who stays in one position for prolonged periods of time . Which one are you interested in or is there perhaps still another that I might learn from you ? Please, do tell ! Laura
