If you can find a gene for Schizophrenia, you're due for a Nobel Peace Prize.

You never will because:

1. This is no brain or blood test to discern Schizophrenia. The category was made by mental health practitioners to categorize common delusional behaviors in a class.
2. The criteria for classifying Schizophrenia is based on behavioral conditions, many of which are very subjective.
3. Drug abuse, traumatic events, etc. can make even a person with "normal" genes develop Schizophrenic behavior.
4. Really, the category is so incredibly broad I tend to question it's usefulness, other than lumping people exhibiting certain behaviors in a category and calling it science.

My brother was diagnosed with Schizophrenia. They never gave a blood or brain test, and jumped between depression, Schizoaffective, etc for a diagnosis for over a year, seemingly arbitrarily. They developed the medication protocol by trial and error until they concocted something that seemed to stabilize. They never could show me an objective test of how they came about the classification or the medicine. It shocked me how unscientific mental health categorizations were.

Excuse me...why did you not read the article from the genetics professionals I provided.

Please do not comment about this again as you don’t bother reading the information I provided in the comment...unbelievable. Go home and argue with someone else...this isn’t about being right on FR it’s about genetics research.

This is not my opinion it is the facts from professional genetic researchers:
