This is Schizophrenia

***There’s no “take on this topic” it’s hard science.

Cerebral ventricles are often swollen between 5-15%,

compressing gray matter (big uh-oh) and the rest is as follows:

frontal lobe defect, impaired temporal lobe and thalamus,

abnormal hippocampus (memory problem woohoo!)

Too many eliminated synapses are “pruned” which means

destroyed during adolescence in the frontal lobe.

Too little activity in left frontal lobe (avolition)

too little in right lobe (disorganization).

Enlarged ventricles means squished temporal lobes,

which means ■■■■■■ up language and visual processes,

think hallucinations, and then a smaller thalamus

which is responsible for sensory info, like attention

problems and memory issues.Hippocampus- storage

and retrieval of info- ■■■■ is shrunken even in the schizers

relatives.Interactions between brain regions-

all nicely ■■■■■■ up.Facts!***

Those are all observable things but do not prove a cause.

We have brains, things can be done to those brains.
