He may not have been schizophrenic at all. Different theories have emerged through the years, that he suffered from lead poisoning (from the lead-based paints he used), Bipolar disorder, overuse of absinthe, syphilis, and even porphyria. He was treated for epilepsy, and suffered seizures through the years; some of his symptoms could have been side-effects of the medication he was given.
