Schizoaffective disorder is a mental health disorder characterized by a combination of symptoms of schizophrenia, including hallucinations or delusions, and symptoms of a mood disorder, such as mania and depression. Schizoaffective disorder shares symptoms with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, and this can lead to misdiagnosis.
To receive a diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder, you must experience psychotic symptoms (hallucinations or delusions) during a period of two weeks or longer when your mood is normal (no manic or depressive episodes).
