>>11513501CUz you're smart enough to identify it as schizophrenia.
On a sidenote (almost?) I recurrently get psychosis when getting far too high. I get this odd sensation that I no longer know what's real, or rather, that the current moment becomes ultra-real, which makes me question my very basic understanding of reality. But, since it's happened several times over the course of a few years, I'm both aware of it and know to simply weather the storm.
I've also had strokes of megalomania during stressfall times, I kept seeing coincidences (even if some things have been oddly coincidental..), making me almost believe in a higher purpose and that I were living in some sort of divine comedy. But here also, I've gotten used to the thoughts and learned to tackle them with reason; no matter if I am living in a divine comedy or no, these coincidences are so unpredictable that they're not worth paying any mind. Yet again, I've managed to think my way out of an otherwise disturbing mental state.
The one state I can't seem to tackle is depression, but the body handles that with nothing but hard work and brute force which works well enough to at least give me income.
I believe intelligence and schozophrenia is linked similarly.
