Psychological debriefing wasn't at first thought to prevent the development of PTSD and other trauma related symptoms but the method has been found to be ineffective and some research has indicated that it makes recovery more difficult as compared to having no treatment at all.

Schizophrenia prognosis
Prognosis is best with good prior functioning, abrupt onset, fewer negative symptoms, minimal cognitive impairment & female gender (females tend to have fewer negative symptoms). Later on that has been associated with better prognosis however the effect of age on onset on prognosis is likely related to gender as females have a later age of onset. Suicide risk is high.
