I have always thought that people that are creative may border on all most of being insane. When I am being creative it all most borders on insanity. For it seems to be to Me a insane ideal or ideals that I am thinking. Though I don't suffer from being a schizo-type of personality Myself.

Likewise as with Kevv.
I've always throught that I'm somewhat insane.
I always make odd associations, especially when it comes to bad jokes.
Wonder if I have this.

Actually, for clarity's sake, I think they're refering to Schizotypal Personality Disorder and not Schizoid Personality Disorder. Schizotypals are more the "fantasy" types while Schizoids are the "reclusives". Though that's a slight generalization.
To be honest, I've noticed a fair few Schizotypals on WP-- it seems kinda common amongst some breeds of Aspies.
