    Claire shifted her attention to Gavin as soon as he spoke. She wasn't quite sure how she could trust the boy, but with the turn of events as of late, she had no other choice but to do whatever was said. Getting into the Animus didn't sound very pleasant and she was rather hesitant to even go in. She eyed the machines once more as she listened to Gavin's word; once he had finished, she watched as the others laid onto the machines, while she on the other hand debated to join them or not. She certainly didn't want to feel as though her head was about to explode, but she couldn't help but feel curious. Sighing lowly, Claire pursed her lips once as she made her way towards an Animus. Now closer to it, she cocked her head to the side as she eyed it once more before finally laying herself onto the machine. She briefly looked at the others before shifting in her seat and waiting for everything to begin. Then again, everything practically began with her family's death. She was an assassin now and if she hadn't joined the others, she would probably be dead right now. Might as well continue until everything ends, right?

    Claire chewed on her lip lightly as Griffin's words slowly became a blur as her mind set off onto something else. She stared quietly down at the ground as she thought back on the things that have happened. She almost couldn't explain everything to herself, then again, how could she? She was still a little confused as to why it happened, but she could not shake off the screams of her family out of her head. It happened all rather too quickly, and the last thing she was rather expecting was to hear that her ancestry had assassins. Of all things, assassins. Though the thought sounded "cool" at first, it became rather frightening now. She couldn't imagine someone in her family having to kill another, but by the looks of things, that is exactly what she would be experiencing. The contraption Griffin kept mentioning was just something she couldn't get a hold on. She mouthed the word as she crossed her arms around her chest, now beginning to repeat it over and over again in her head until the word stuck in her head.

    A sigh escaped the girl's lips as she turned her attention towards Griffin. She stared at the boy as she tried figuring out who he was. He seemed to hold quite a bit of knowledge about the events that have unfolded in the past week to the point she isn't even sure as to where she is. Who is he? Where were they? How does he know all of these things? So many questions began running through her head and soon enough she felt a headache coming along. Groaning, she lowered her head as she shut her head, rubbing her temples with her thumb and index finger; to be honest, she actually just wanted to go home. To be home in her bed, with her family - well, her family is dead. Going home was clearly not an option. She had no other choice but to stick around. She could only hope she could eventually develop some form of trust towards Griffin and the others around her. However, at the same time she couldn't help but feel suspicious towards every single individual here.

    Claire's lips pursed as she shifted where she stood, eyeing everyone in the room before setting her eyes on the Animus. There were several, but she couldn't put her finger on a...plural word. Animi? Animuses? Ani-something. Just something. Shrugging it off, Griffin's last words finally rang in Claire's ear as her little train of thought quickly vanished. She was finally going to sit on one of those things and hopefully figure out what on earth was really going on. Now the only thing she could think of is how far back she will be seeing her ancestry, which in a sense for her was rather exciting.

    Like for every disorder/illness/disease there will always be some form of medication for something. The most common case of Schizophrenia that we see is Paranoid Schizophrenia, which is where they think people are out to get them, they're being watched, and they have delusions and hallucinations. It's the most common one. The other three subtypes are rather rare. From what I have read, the brain releases high levels dopamine. Dopamine is in charge of movement, thought and emotion. So autopsies of schizophrenics show there are high levels of dopamine. Antipsychotic medications are used to lower those high levels of dopamine, so basically it is what schizophrenics need to take so they don't relapse.

    I think the most common thing people think about schizophrenics is that they are crazy and belong in a mental institute. I, sadly, at one point thought this is what it simply was. A person being crazy. But there's always a cause of these kinds of things. Twins are apparently at a higher risk of developing schizophrenia and genetics and the environment can be factors as to why a person became schizophrenic. Childhood head injuries can cause it, viral infections of the brain can cause it, pregnancy complications, even an excessive amount of stress increases the risk in genetically predisposed individuals.

    Medication is possibly the only thing that can help to maintain schizophrenia. The only problem is that those that have it usually have a hard time taking care of themselves because of the disorder so they would need someone else to be caring for them. However, people tend to distance themselves because there is always the risk of a schizophrenic being violent and dangerous. The person with schizophrenia might not even realize they have it because of all the delusions and hallucinations they start having.
