You’re very precise @chew
I imagine your response in a German accent.
Lol the most humorous of all peoples…
I always figured this was due to high levels of dopamine (which by the way insomnia or issues with sleep can cause) doing damage to the frontal cortex–>i.e. Lowered cognitive function and impulse control. Mix that with anger/depression and you can get a very violent person. Though drugs that cause high levels of dopamine sometimes also lead to aggression…
Also if someone is in a dream-like state they are also likely to be less-impeded. I have demonstrated incredible violence in my dreams that I would never perpetrate in real life. What if I lost the distinction between the two?
One of the ways I hear voices is when I automatically blink rapidly, like in REM sleep.
This hadn’t happened for a while, but after visiting family started again. In addition to hearing quieter voices without REM whilst in bed or out and about.
I don’t know my dreams have a lot more variety than my psychosis. My psychosis is always following certain themes.
I have a theory that sleep apnea may play a role in schizophrenia.
It’s already known that sleep apnea causes anxiety disorders.
Even a slight disruption of oxygen to the brain can cause all sorts of problems.
I think it’s a disease of cognition. And a developmental disorder
I was diagnosed with a developmental coordination disorder (dyspraxia) as a child.
