Lets say we have someone with a thought disorder of disorganized
thoughts sometimes.

Now, common theory of schizophrenia is that it is caused by too much
dopamine. This is probably causes too much sensitivity in that area so
that it i cannot be handled properly, or am i wrong on this point?

For the example person, too much dopamine would cause that person to
have too many thoughts and they get disorganized.

Now what if at other times or along with disorganized thoughts, they
have a lot of times with poverty of thoughts or proverty of speech.

This would mean that they get too much dopamine in one area but not
enough dopamine in other areas right.
