I reckon one reason why schizophrenics consume more ciggies and coffee is because they are bored and restless (and perhaps that restlessness is in part due to the meds also). Maybe Im overanalysing the data but it seems to me that perhaps the studies of schizophrenics and smoking are mostly done in hospitals or day out patients kinda things. There NOTHING to do in hospitals except sit and smoke and I doubt many day out patients have jobs or much other occupying pursuits also.
