Brains that are good at math (Like John Nash) end up having schizophrenia idk.. Logical INTP personality type..
Cuz I went on an INTP forum and they complain about negative symptoms a lot.. It's a "Logician" personality type. I only got my personality and sanity back after I did psychedelics which is weird because they seems to cause psychosis in most people and definitely did in me. I can't explain much of it idk..
But this is all theory because anyone can get schizophrenia. I do believe that schizophrenia is a set of mathematical equations which is why the right therapy should work instead of just draining the brain of dopamine and serotonin with antipsychotics..

INTPs are great, they "get" me ... and they can tolerate and enjoy my insufferable and endless extrapolations of thought; and of taking apart entire systems of thought, theories, philosophies, ideologies, belief systems, etc. and putting them back together in entirely different forms with new insights just because well eh why not it is a good mental exercise.
I am an INTJ, which usually makes a few people do an obligatory, "oh **** please do not eat me" due to rampant stereotyping, heh. The Machiavellian mastermind thing is overdone by now. Though, that said I do have ridiculously excellent foresight, and I use my powers for good ... most of the time ... [emoji14]
I have never done psychedelics, though the purely scientific part of my mind is curious about what that kind of thing would do to a brain like mine that is continuously psychotic as it is.
For me, it seems that my schizophrenia is maintained by and has a foundation built upon fear at an extremely basic level. Not anxiety or panic. Not some nonsensical emotional overly personalized subjective abstraction of the word "fear" either. I am talking about fear in a more cerebral sense of the word and also the very primal/instinctive sense of the word simultaneously. This of course is not a complete idea, it is still being tossed around in my mind.
