Are highly intelligent people more prone to mental illness? OR --?

[Display Name]

or since average intelligent people are the majority and they feel the life and acts of the minority geniuses as mental illness and label them sick. (About 1 to 2 % of the total population are geniuses).

Note:
Homosexualism was a (or Considered a )mental illness before.
Now homosexuals are high in number, walking free, admitting that they are, everywhere.
So homosexualism is not in the list of illness now.

++++

Just like that, psychopathy is considered a mental illness. The matter is that they uphold logic almost 100% than the emotions. The emotional beings being the majority won't accept that , and have put the 'condition' in the list of mental illness. If they major in number, psychopathic character too, will be be removed from the list.

Somewhere I read that some of the US Presidents were(/are) having psychopathic characters. And 1 in 25 leaders and business bosses will be a psychopath, and they usually become boss of the bosses (Check the web).

I think, since they had that characters, they were able to success.So that might not be a mental illness but just normal in the nature or high giftedness of those human beings.
