Schizophrenia is characterised by either positive or negative symptoms - e.g. either the presence of hallucinations and delusions, or the absence of something, e.g "flat effect" - the absence or inappropriate presence of certain emotions.
Schizophrenia is not Multiple Personality Syndrome/Disorder.
And even if you'd said MPD instead of Schizophrenia, it wasn't really v witty...
Better ones = If someone with MPD threatens suicide is it a hostage situation?
If someone with MPD kills themselves is it murder or suicide?
If you performed a sexual act on your clone, would it be masturbation?
etc...

I suppose it kind of feels to be an issue of individual alternative. If any individual tells me they're english, I more commonly receive that they're. I have 'english' peers who weren't born in england however their mother and father are from right here, and 'english' peers who have been born somewhere else however have lived in england so much in their lives. Equally, plenty of folks born in england could name themselves 'british' no longer 'english'.

No Schizophrenia does not mean split mind (that was a misunderstanding researchers and doctors now discovered it is not, well that did awhile ago.) That would be a defect. If it was a joke that was cute!

I think you may be trying to make a joke about multiple personality, rather than schizophrenia; however, either way, it isn't the slightly bit funny ha ha.

If there are two separate brains, nope.

I don't believe so if they have two functioning brains.
