Hi, I have made some contributions to Wikipedia as Notpayingthepsychiatrist or Realiseyourdignity.

I am interested in schizophrenia as a patient.

Here is a copy of my thoughts on my own situation: http://sites.google.com/site/schizophreniahypoxia/

I discovered Philip Seeman's Nature article describing more D4-like receptors in schizophrenics. Since then he says the actual D4 receptor wasn't elevated (another one of his articles says it was probably an increase in 'monomers'). He now says many conditions could lead to highly sensitive d2 receptors and this could lead to schizophrenia (pers. comm) - this was published in Synapse (http://people.bu.edu/gaowx/Seeman-Synapse-Psychosis%20pathways-2006.pdf), and the variety of causes is reflected in the Wikipedia article 'Causes of Schizophrenia'.

Hope Wikipedia helps you.
