I suspect a number of mental "disorders" persist because the disorder is the side effect, and the increased creativity/intelligence they confer is what is selected. From what I've seen, elite universities could aptly be described as mental asylums...high IQ must come at a price.

Evolution has special place in it's heart for those who reproduce easily. Whether you are batshit crazy and stay mad at your bf for days after you DREAMED he talked to another woman is, apparently, secondary. Guess how I know.
