Schizoaffective disorder
Schizoaffective disorder is a chronic mental health condition characterized by abnormal thought processes and unstable mood. It is considered to be more severe than schizophrenia, as it involves both psychotic symptoms and significant mood disturbances. Individuals with schizoaffective disorder may experience a detachment from reality, along with fluctuations in their mood. The prevalence of schizoaffective disorder is estimated to be around 0.3%, affecting approximately 1 in 300 people at some point in their lives.
