The last reading kind of made me wonder what if I had some of these disorders, how would I feel, what would I be doing with my life? I did some research on Schizophrenia that I will get into during our discussion. So I will save that for later. A lot of the disorders have multiple symptoms which make them hard to diagnose. So you could be treated for something that you may not have. It made me wonder if and why some of the best writers and painters had some of these problems? Maybe this is why they were great. I wonder due to the chemical imbalances they are able to use more of their brain and thus unlock a part of the brain that is more creative than the norm. I think that it is a shame that a person may need to suffer from problems to be great. I also wonder if the great writers and painters had been treated for their disorders how different their works would have been. Maybe they wouldn’t even seek treatment for disorders in fear it might hurt their creativity. After the reading I wonder if I had any of the disorders described in the reading how different my thought process would be or will I be more creative. I wonder.
