Is the idea of multiplicity and hearing voices more acceptable to creative people?

I am not really going to try and answer that question here – but it is something to consider…
I have come across the idea of multiplicity and hearing voices as normal human experiences in a lot of different medias. Firstly in books I have read, later in films, lyrics and music videos. I always found it reassuring that others described – as well as used – these concepts and experiences and it was actually not till my late teens I realised it was thought of as symptoms of illness.
Today I came across an article on the site psychologytoday.com talking about how psychiatrists may have lost the plot a bit. The article talks about how traits described as symptoms of illness in some contexts are praised and promoted in others. This guy makes a good argument I think. http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/reading-between-the-headlines/201202/defining-normal-how-psychiatry-has-lost-its-way

I have decided to collect a list of references to books and authors as well as links to stuff available on the internet. What they all have in common is that they describe the human experience of hearing voices or having several selves. They may be in normalising, creative, celebratory or stigmatising ways – but that, I find, has as much to do with the eyes that behold as with the source…
