I don't believe that it's an either or thing. Schizophrenia can affect cognitive abilities significantly so a person may seem less intelligent than they actually are due to the illness or medications. There are highly intelligent people with schizophrenia, people with lower intelligence with it, and same with bipolar. Everyone as an individual is different.
