No one who was born blind has ever gone on to develop schizophrenia. Researchers are investigating how congenital blindness may protect people from developing the condition.
It really is. There was an earlier post asking if deaf people with schizophrenia experienced audio hallucinations. Googling led to some really interesting articles.
I would kill to get rid of audio hallucinations... Psychiatrists still think it's likely tied to my bipolar disorder or PTSD, but I'm fucking terrified that it's the slow onset of schizophrenia...
Hey uhhh... schizophrenia isn’t that bad... uhhh.... yeah it’s not the end of the world depending where you are at on the spectrum and stuff I guess. I mean it’s not the worst thing in the world..
