Ah, yes, but you missed an recurring symptom of schizophrenia

DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR!!!!

Also a related autox illness could be Depressive Psychosis....
Psychotic/Schizophrenic symptoms stemming from unrelenting frustration
of need prompted by frequent failures to go fast which in sum overwhelm
ones ego coping capacity.  In this particular instance it appears the
larger the ego, the more recurrent the condition.

Studies are ongoing to determine if large ego size can be
in reality a negative weight factor in an autoxing vehicle.
