In my fourth year of my PhD on schizophrenia and I'm currently writing up my thesis. I'm procrastinating right now so thought I'd do something useful with what I've been studying.
And no, schizophrenia is not multiple personality disorder.
Edit: I have to get dinner and run some errands. I'm really enjoying this so I will definitely get back and answer the rest of the questions.
Thanks. I asked because I worked with someone who had a psychotic break once. This person is very good with a particular kind of lyricism, and an unbelievable freestyler. When they were sick, sometimes they'd be ranting or arguing about something and suddenly break into improvised complex rhyme schemes. They'd sorta stay on topic. It was certainly not in situations you'd consider appropriate, but neither did it descend into word salad or anything. It many ways it was very impressive.
That does sound really impressive, thanks for sharing!
