schizophrenia and how I view this illness
As much as schizophrenia is a deep illness of mind, it came about through (de)-volution of man. Yes people can experience the same symptoms, from trauma, as the schizophrenic, but the schizophrenia has its own signature and diagnosis. In particular that is the splitting of mind (cancer of mind) and living of multiple personalities at once. Making reality hard to see or even reach for.
