* In ''[[
** Additionally most of the other patients at the hospital [[Bruce Willis (Creator)]]' character was at were quite paranoid or [http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/12_Monkeys#Dialogue delusional].
* Used in the movie ''Conspiracy Theory''. As it turns out, [[Properly Paranoid|everything the seemingly paranoid schizophrenic says is true]].
== [[Literature]] ==
* "Chief" Bromden, [[Unreliable Narrator|the narrator]] of Ken Kesey's ''[[
* ''Inside Out'' by Terry Trueman is narrated by a fellow who went into a schizophrenic state and, essentially, never came out. Voices often interrupt the narration to taunt him, and there's rhyming nonsense in the margins of the pages. ("Squish-wish, squish-wish, don't you wish you could squish a wish?") It should be noted that Trueman is a psychologist, so this is presumably an accurate depiction of some form of the illness.
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* ''[[Star Trek: Voyager]]'' had an episode ("The Voyager Conspiracy") where Seven of Nine goes temporarily crazy from information overload and links most of the major events of the series up to that point into a massive Federation conspiracy to capture her, a Borg Drone... this is easily dismissed until you realize that, even though her conclusion about it being all about her was flawed and delusional, several of her premises were, in fact, quite grounded and made for some tantalizingly uncomfortable questions that were completely swept under the rug by the show... One can't help but wonder if there really WAS a conspiracy going on there... Specifically, why was a glorified scout ship on a reconnaissance mission armed with several banned WMD's?
** And where the hell did the tractor beam come from?
** An interesting side note is that some neurobiologists think that some forms of schizophrenia may actually be caused by a malfunction in the part of the brain responcible for filtering information for significance and this could potencial causes the afflicated to try and process ALL information equally, looking for paterns and correlations, similar to what Seven experienced.
* ''[[CSI New York]]'' even has a doctor get it wrong. A schizophrenic goes off his meds, and without knowing anything about his medical history, she says that after a few days he'd "start seeing the world as a very hostile place". Of course, she's [[The Coroner|a medical examiner]], not a psychiatrist, but still... well, it's [[You Fail Indexes Forever|CSI]].
* ''[[Stargate SG
== [[Video Games]] ==
* Boyd Cooper from ''[[
** He got better after tossing his last Molotov.
{{quote| '''Boyd:''' [[Creepy Monotone|I am the Milkman. My milk is delicious.]] * throws Molotov milk cocktail*}}
* The protagonist of the [[Show Within a Show|television show]] ''Address Unknown'' in ''[[Max Payne 2]]'' is diagnosed as "paranoid schizophrenic" allegedly caused by a brain tumor. Or as least, [[Unreliable Narrator|our protagonist]] says this happens.
* In ''[[
* Kenji from ''[[Katawa Shoujo]]'' is implied to be schizophrenic, but whether or not he is he is ''very'' paranoid.
