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.
In schizoaffective disorder the mood symptoms are more prominent, and generally last much longer than in schizophrenia. The best treatment for schizoaffective disorder is a combination of medications, such as antipsychotics, antidepressants or mood stabilizers, and psychological interventions (counseling).
