Parkinson's disease is, as all of you know caused by lack of dopamine. But did you know, Schitzphrenia and Parkinson's are total opposites? Schizophrenics have too much dopamine which stimulates their brain so much, they hear voices that are not there, see hallucinations, etc. Schitzophrenics are treated with dopamine inhibiters. Very Strange.
