Does anyone think Shannon Hoon from Blind Melon had schizophrenia?

For any Blind Melon fans, there are plenty of lyrics that may have referenced psychosis, especially mouthful of cavities and walk.

I love the song Change, other than that I haven’t listened to much of them.

Not sure if he had SZ. I’ll look up those lyrics

I love Blind Melon …

All I knew about him is that he overdosed on cocaine on his tour bus. Never suspected a mental illness.

Yeah. I think it was drugs really

Yeah the drugs killed him but he referenced paranoia attacks in his song walk and some kind of being or force watching everything he did in the song mouthful of cavities. His albums have alot of alternative thinking in them. Maybe the illness led to the death…

No, I think that drugs influenced him - Paranoia is a common experience with drug use
