Heard this on NPR this morning
Story on a family in the 60’s
6 of their sons diagnosed with sz.
The interviewee said they all went thru the same things but didn’t totally rule genetics though
It was nowhere in the family.
I refer to my schizophrenia as an ‘affliction’…
“The state of being afflicted by something that causes suffering”
Disease to me is cancer, parkinsons, MS…dementia…etc.

I have SZ with prominent negative symptoms and no one in my family have or had a mental illness.
Doctor’s don’t know why I have SZ.
I am doing nothing, 0 stress, and still have SZ.

There’s a book coming out on April 7 about this family. There’s a link to an article about it in this thread.
