Ever researched schizophrenia, my dear?

A schizophrenic has a, shall we say. . ., malfunctioning interpretation of reality. The malfunction is due, a lot, to the fact that they tend to live inside their heads. (Especially the paranoid schizophrenics).

Schizophrenics interpret the data that they receive from other people in a way that is biased to their own preconceived notions. Most people, you know, have preconceived notions, too. But, schizophrenics have a brand of preconceived notions that are so far from reality that they literally make the schizophrenic see things that aren't there.

A way that schizophrenics can cope with these notions and live more in reality is known as "reality checking". A famous paranoid schizophrenic, John Nash, dealt with his schizophrenia by constantly asking seemingly inane questions. For instance, whenever a new person would talk to him, he would ask a nearby person that he knew was real if they saw the person who was talking to him. This method of reality checking helped him consciously differentiate between people he thought were there and people who were actually there.
One day I realized it didn't matter at all. I moved onto bigger and better things, in a betwixt amusement at myself.

You can have a preconceived notion based on actual stimuli (assumption) or you can have a preconceived notion based on cognitive deficits (hallucinations). Make sure you differentiate.

So you did pick up my subtlety? I'm impressed.

Unfortunately, you intentionally missed the point, allthewhile seeing it...

That says a lot.

You seem fairly fun.

I'll elucidate if you're truly interested, but not here. It'd, well, take your thread off on yet another tangent. :(
