He was a man institutionalized in a German psychiatric hospital who became famous as the quintessential schizophrenia patient through Sigmund Freud's studies.

The character Dr. Schreber in the film Dark City was named after him.

Looking at his claims, there are several that closely resemble what many users on X say

He stated that a upper deity Ahura Mazda and a lower deity Angra Mainyu exist in the world, and claimed that God exerts influence through rays, dreams, and works of literature.

He also argued that this world is filled with numerous fake human beings hastily improvised by God, which bears a striking resemblance to modern NPC theory.

Okay. Many people claim such things. What of it? What's interesting?

>Improvised by God
Agentic God stuff is mentally retarded thinking. What you should instead consider is that certain humans have sufficient neural complexity to receive true consciousness from somewhere else. Others are biological automatons. He sounds pretty smart but so many people are limited by God-brained thinking

He was a judge who had enjoyed a soaring career until he developed a mental illness. Unlike most psychiatric patients, his high intellectual and social standing was one of his most distinctive traits.

Furthermore, he wrote the book Memoirs of My Nervous Illness in an effort to be released from the asylum. The work detailed his personal convictions as an argument that because a madman could never write a book logically, the very fact he produced one proved his sanity and justified his discharge.

The book became an essential resource for understanding the mental state of someone with schizophrenia, turning him into the world's most famous psychiatric patient. To this day, his work remains required reading for psychiatrists.

At any rate, if you read his book, you will find plenty of bizarre claims, like notions of soul murder and assertions that the world had already ended several times.

That's pretty cool maybe I'll read it

Highly functional schizophrenic people are pretty common. It unfortunately runs in my family but I don't have the major contributory genes

rays of influence is very schizophrenic, but the other stuff is just normal belief, even a bit limited in scope. Some people being hastily improvised by God is very funny and i think that was his way of saying many people are retarded.
