Interesting article on psychosis and memory. I've certainly noticed, since my first break over a year ago, that my memory and cognitive abilities has lowered dramatically. Assuming IQ tests are an accurate tool to measure intelligence, can anyone relate to this or even agree, this article makes some very strong points.

While my cognition and memory have certainly suffered since I became really ill, I have always scored rather high on IQ tests.
