"Suffering from schizophrenia" - is this really the description from the episode (I can't remember) or a mistaken use of the term in place of "multiple personality disorder?". This needs checking and clarifying to prevent the perpetuation of an already all-too common myth Horus Kol 16:44, 14 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

They clearly say it is schizophrenia within the episode, and nobody suffers from multiple personality disorder. To my knowledge, MPD is what people commonly call schizophrenia; having (as the name suggests) multiple personalities. However, within the show people suffer not from multiple personalities, but rather seeing and hearing things that aren't there (Which I'm pretty sure is schizophrenia)
