-— Schizophrenia is normally hereditary - paranoia and hear voices. -—

The thing that puzzles me is that the voices give coherent messages. The messages aren’t just garbled noise.

Schizophrenia is a scary illness. They do hear distinct voices and even orders to do things. Not all schizophrenics are violent, but I’ve seen a couple with those tendencies, and those are the true worrisome ones. Unfortunately, most schizophrenics don’t want to take their meds.

I have a feeling the anti depressants are worse than the psychosis meds which seem to put schizophrenics in a sedated mental state - which they don’t seem to like. Why they want to be off meds and be in a tormented state of mind is beyond me.
