John Nash, the person A Beautiful Mind was based on, had schizophrenia/multiple personality disorder. When asked why he listened to the voices, he said pretty much the same thing: they gave him some of his best ideas. Alma Deutscher, a British classical music prodigy, is possibly on a par with Mozart (not kidding; look up the 60 Minutes special on her; first piano sonata at 6; her opera Cinderella premiered when she was twelve; debuted at Carnegie Hall at 14). When she was little (before 10 years old or so), had a number of imaginary friends who helped her compose in different styles. Now that she’s 16, she realizes that the friends were only imaginary, and continues to compose wonderful music.

Asking her to recount the conversation might be more enlightening.

The voices never have to deal with the consequences of their actions.
