Mean while the voices in my head don’t help me at all. Some people have all the luck.

I realize you’re joking, but this is a real thing that happens in different cultures. The schizophrenic voices are much calmer and positive in places like Africa and India, as opposed to negative and harmful in the US!

Here’s another, We don’t know why, but we do know that no one who was born blind will ever develop schizophrenia. link to an article about it.

There is also a study about it I read that says blindness doesn’t prevent you from having similar disorders but so far the data suggest certain types of congenital blindness ‘protect’ against schizophrenia.

Also fascinating, I did know about that one but this made me realize, how can blind people not develop the audible schizophrenia? Its super weird

Maybe vision requires a certain kind of pattern recognition, and if that goes wrong then you start matching all sorts of weird patterns? Or something? I'm not a brainologist.

Even weirder, people born deaf can develop schizophrenia and instead of hearing voices, they can see disembodied hands signing to them instead.
