I couldn’t find much meaning. I guess that is just how I decipher things I can’t understand. Maybe you could find out for yourself though…

Saw this and commented on it two weeks ago. More “here’s the gene that causes it” baloney, I’m afraid. You might want to take a look at this: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v511/n7510/full/nature13595.html.
What REALLY matters is that each of these new dis-cover-ies may or may not have relevance to current or future pharmaceutical interventions. But, frankly, even if researchers do manage to come up with something better than dopamine blockers, it’s highly unlikely that any drug will ever effectively deal with the exceedingly neurophysiologically complex cognitive distortions caused by those modifications.
Is there hope? YES, there is.

Team up with a good psychopharmacologist in a collaborative experiment to find the meds that work best, and

get into at least cognitive-behavioral, if not mindfulness-based cognitive-behavioral, psychotherapy.

That makes more sense. Because I know that allele is part of our DNA. That is all I know.
I just don’t know how to communicate well with my pdoc. It’s like he explains everything too fast for me to comprehend. I know he may or not have the answer I need. But with his advice I can always build on it. My question arises where in the history of DNA did schizophrenic allele emerge? And how? Even bigger implications, how to handle it. Breed it out of existence, which I have heard from some story some where outrageous to me. Or with vigorous effort just keep discovering and contributing. In my mind the scientists are us.
