When Martouf and Captain Samantha Carter are talking about Carter having been a host to Jolinar of Malkshur, Carter makes a comment about how that must be what it feels like to have schizophrenia. However, the symptom of "having more than one person [in one's head]" is characteristic of dissociative identity disorder (previously known as multiple personality disorder), which is a condition distinct from and unrelated to schizophrenia. Schizophrenia instead mainly has the symptoms of delusion, hallucination, paranoia, fugue-like episodes, or some combination thereof. This confusion is a common one; it probably arose from the word schizophrenia meaning, literally, "split mind" (from Gr. skhizein, to split + phren, mind). However, the use of this word refers to the splitting of mental functions that characterizes schizophrenia on a neurobiological level, not the splitting of personality, which is in some form present in dissociative identity disorder.
