Paranoid schizophrenia

Wright calls paranoid schizophrenia an example of double-mindedness. He discusses rejection and a protective facade as possible background or a defense mechanism.

Possible spiritual roots

Tormenting fear and double-mindedness / instability in thinking.

Wright connects this division with delusions and projected delusions; defense mechanisms and a facade may arise secondarily.

Wright links the profile with excessive release of norepinephrine and dopamine, and possibly serotonin.

Spiritual response

Reject tormenting fear and address double-mindedness; identify false identities and accusation; where a spiritual influence is discerned, Wright includes deliverance ministry.
