If it was in 'The Sun', I'd just think it was par for the course but 3 times in the last 2 weeks, I've read/heard the term Schizophrenic used as meaning having a split personality or being torn/undecided about something eg 'I feel a bit schizophrenic about it' in The Times, The Guardian and on Radio 4.
Schizophrenia is a horrible debilitating mental illness Not having a Jekll/Hyde personality or being in two minds about something. I'm sure everyone here knows this, I just can't believe that people who should know better are still using it in this way.
