What Is Schizoaffective Disorder?
3. What Are the Symptoms of the Disorder?
Some people only have mild symptoms, but others struggle with severe episodes. People with delusions may hold onto strange beliefs even when provided with facts illustrating the contrary. Delusions often accompany mania, which includes bursts of happiness and risky behavior. This can lead to problems at work, in school and in social settings.
Depression symptoms include feelings of sadness and emptiness. With depression may come a lack of personal care. The individual may also become more withdrawn and only provide partial or even unrelated answers to questions.
