Sounds like the plot line in "Odyssey 5."

Interesting. Family studies do show a genetic link and they think a number of genes are involved so the load of genes is important. Schizophrenia is actually more than one syndrome,,schizophrenias is a better term and people use it now. The spectrum of severity is broad. Twin studies and adopted away kid studies, mostly done in Sweden, demonstrate the genetic linkage. Now the interesting thing is do these families pass on this thing. And important to remember, there are many more cases of Schizophrenia that have no genetic links, sort of like Altzheimers. Fascinating. Makes you wonder if when they say they are "possessed", they may be right.
