Absolutely. Alcohol creates psychotic breaks, and so does schizophrenia. The two fit together like hand and glove. Schizophrenics (and people with a history of it in the family) should not drink. However, many do because they find that alcohol can quiet some of the symptoms of their psychosis. This can make it difficult to diagnose and treat the schizophrenia.
