I don’t know that it is entirely related to Schizophrenia. I think environment has a lot to do with it. I had an alcoholic father and a prescription drug addicted mother - neither of them had a diagnosed mental illness.

I have a terrible addiction to nicotine and was very aware of how easily I became addicted. I chose not to take illicit drugs or alcohol as a result.
