Neurotransmitters involved in the process of attraction are fully working but the ones involved in romantic love are compromised, therefore they can’t work properly.
That’s the reason why schizophrenic patients can’t bond affectively with anyone."
I don't think this is true. Does any one believe it?
No I dont believe it , it has all the hallmarks of psuedo scientific misadventure. Its easier to say that sz sufferers have a problem with intimacy because many are simply not stable enough to have robust relationships. Relationships require a level of honesty and self expression and its just too stressful for the normal joe blogs who has sz.
