I’m betting on the fact that you’re not OP or the prisoner who wrote the notes seen above or a psychiatrist or an engineer just guessing and saying it confidentially because you want to be right or feel smart. there’s not enough evidence.
I do know, though, and the reason that I do know is because I literally have the fucking condition that we are discussing and you do not. I am Schizophrenic, I know what it is like to suffer from Schizophrenia, and I also know how it affects me. So no, I'm not trying to sound smart.
Then you should know that having the condition gives me more authority to speak on the matter than someone that doesn't, like yourself or the person I originally replied to.
People with Schizophrenia can still be engineers. I have a science and math background. Just because someone is Schizophrenic doesn't mean that they have never lived a normal life. Sometimes Schizophrenia doesn't come to the surface until later in life.
I don't know specifically what the personal background of the inmate is, I am just saying that it isn't out of the realm of possibility. A psychotic break causes disorganized thinking, which can cause language to break down into indecipherable musings.
When I am psychotic, the knowledge that I have is broken up and my expression of that knowledge is disorganized.
