Something strange, something new...Something educating?

It seems that everyone is in a flurry, updating their blogs with notes and facts about psychological disorders, showcasing just how much they've learned these past few weeks (or maybe just trying to get their blog done before the due date...who knows, eh?). In any case, I've decided to keep with the trend and actually update with a post that pertains to what we've been doing in class and not just what I myself find interesting (because what I find interesting might cause for deep psychological trauma to the rest of you innocents). As a result, I shall post one interesting (and hopefully unknown, although it really depends on your note-taking skills) fact about schizophrenia, since it is my PSA topic. After much (internet) searching and (web) probing, I happened to find my interesting fact, and it is quite...ah, interesting, for lack of a better term. What is that fact, you ask? I shall tell you: schizophrenic people apparently very much like to draw...cats. How do I know this? Well, if you are to search for "schizophrenic art", that is all you will see. Literally. Painted cats, drawn cats. An abundance of them. That is not to say that every single schizophrenic person does it, of course, but a there are those that do (or did, if they are deceased...rest in peace, fellow cat lovers), such as Louis Wain, an English artist, who was very well known for his drawing of cats before and after he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Did any of you find this as interesting as I did? No? Hmmm...maybe it's because I tend to look at my cats like some people look at their beds: with adoration and love in their eyes.
        Note: I don't think my post ended up talking much about schizophrenia at all, actually, despite how hard I worked to make it sound informing. Oh well...We'll always have the trusty Internet to answer any questions we might have about those numerous psychological disorders, no?
