Schizophrenia is much more likely to result in violence than depression. Also, so is antisocial personality disorder (sociopathy, sometimes referred to as psychopathy). Agreed?

Not true. Depression w/suicide ideation is more dangerous to the individual. Also not always considered a SMI. Schizophrenia is not likely to result in violent behavior. Personality disorders are hotly contested. Psychopathy no longer exists in the DSM-5, I believe.

I’m speaking of outward violence, not self-harm. Which I believe was obvious. Also, that’s why I said “sometimes referred to as psychopathy”. Link between schizophrenia and violent crime: https://psychnews.psychiatryonline.org/doi/10.1176/pn.46.17.psychnews_46_17_20_2 …

Exactly.

Or because it bolsters your bias.

If you’re interested in how these narratives of dangerous, criminality, and social distancing have become ubiquitous in our culture, please read the work of Wahl, Corrigan, Link, Phelan, Stout, Villegas & Jennings, etc. There’s lots of good research available via Google Scholar.
