Hi.. Who diagnosed her with schizophrenia? I hope this diagnosis is coming from a Psychiatrist and not based on Google search on her symptoms. If she is diagnosed with schizophrenia, medications are a must and if not, please do not use such medical terms to explain her condition. First thing as a spouse you can do is to help her get professional help. If she is unwilling you can visit a Psychiatrist alone and share her symptoms. S/he will guide you on her treatment. Also, please bring her parents or elder siblings into confidence before taking her into treatment. In such cases, it becomes very important to involve all stakeholders before taking any decision or at least keeping them informed. There are certain medico-legal issues that must be kept in mind before making decisions on the patients behalf.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychiatrist first for Diagnosis and Medications.
Consult a Psychologist for Counselling/Psychotherapy later.
Involves her Parents/Family before making a decision.
