Schizophrenia
Questions from
viewers about schizophrenia,
and
Doctor Leon’s common sense advice.
Crystal – I hear voices .Am I crazy?
Doctor Leon – Attempting to relate voices to a state of sanity
is a futile correlational exercise. The question of your sanity
depends on a universally accepted definition of the word “crazy,” and
no such definition exists. You may or may not be crazy for any number
of reasons totally unrelated to the voices. You may or may not be
crazy depending on whose definition you use.
As for the voices, you are either living too close to a radio
transmitting tower or your cell phone signals are embedding
permanent magnetic disruption imprints on your grey matter. These
magnetic resonance disturbances are often misinterpreted by untrained
intellects as “voices.” Change stations and try for a little music.
Music will not disrupt your daily routine the way the voices do. Avoid
rap music, that would be too much like the voices.
