Friedrich Nietzsche and his illness: a neurophilosophical approach to introspection.
[cadasil]
There
are
some
arguments
that
Friedrich
Nietzsche
suffered
from
the
autosomal
dominant
vascular
microangiopathy
:
Cerebral
Autosomal
Dominant
Arteriopathy
with
Subcortical
Infarcts
and
Leukoencephalopathy
(
CADASIL
)
.
Here
,
a
hypothesis
is
formulated
supporting
that
CADASIL
presenting
with
symptoms
of
bipolar
disorder
and
Gastaut-
Geschwind
syndrome
would
contribute
to
the
increased
insight
and
creativity
of
a
philosopher
whose
perceptions
and
intuitions
often
bear
out
the
results
of
modern
neuroscience
.
Alterations
of
the
brain
default
and
reward
networks
would
account
for
such
an
increased
level
of
introspection
and
creativity
.
A
new
framework
on
approaching
illness
is
proposed
,
which
,
in
conformity
with
Nietzsche
's
positive
view
,
outlines
the
enabling
aspects
of
some
otherwise
highly
disabling
neuropsychiatric
disorders
.
