There is nothing murky about schizophrenia. It is a clinically diagnosed condition that is largely held to be neurological.

- mercer 8y agoThe murky part is all the other stuff. I don't believe that being a diagnosed condition or able to point out a clear neurological cause invalidates all the other stuff that other people struggle with. In many cases we probably just can't diagnose it well enough. To be clear, I'm not at all arguing that we should have less sympathy or make less room for people like Terry, rather the opposite, and acknowledging that their behavior can be appalling can, in the right context, be a good thing for both them and others. Perhaps this is not the right context for that argument, but that was what I was trying to say.
