Greetings from a fellow schizophrenic. I was diagnosed after having a "psychotic break" roughly four years ago. Since, I've learned to take my varied diagnosis with a grain of salt.
I found the collective works of Carl Jung to be very insightful into my experience. It gave me a new perspective to subjectively view my psychosis, more importantly one that didn't look at my diagnosis in such a negative light.
True schizophrenics drowned in the same sea of collective consciousness/thought, that us "mystics" learn to swim in.
Here is a link with info on Jung and how he approached the disorder.

many things are discovered, then
forgotten again, and it is left to future
generations to rediscover them.
