A method and system for treating schizophrenia and other forms of mental illness, including: given a brain comprising neurons coupled by an axon including an inner core and an outer myelin sheath, and given one or more defects in the outer myelin sheath, repairing the one or more defects in the outer myelin sheath with one or more of a protein and a lipid such that the outer myelin sheath has a substantially constant electrical impedance for the transmission of data energy between the neurons and such that data energy is not undesirably reflected from the direction of a receiving neuron in the direction of a transmitting neuron within the axon.
