Causes of Schizoaffective Disorder
Research has yet to uncover one clear cause of schizoaffective disorder. Instead, it is believed to be the result of a combination of factors that include brain chemical imbalance, genetic predisposition, or even environmental factors such as exposure to viruses or certain toxins. Until a specific cause and treatment can be identified, the best way to manage symptoms of depressive type schizophrenic disorder is to seek help from a licensed, clinical psychologist who has experience in treating schizophrenia and mood disorders.
Psychotic Symptoms
People with psychosis detach from reality. They often experience hallucinations, hearing or seeing things that aren’t there, and/or delusions — believing in something that isn’t true. While these are some of the most common symptoms of psychosis, there are others such as incoherent or disorganized thinking, catatonia, and anxiety or paranoia.
Depressive Symptoms
Similar to the symptoms of major depression, the symptoms that an individual experiences with depressive type schizoaffective disorder can contribute additional challenges to everyday life. Some of those symptoms may include a loss of interest in activities once enjoyed, trouble sleeping or eating, lack of motivation, and social withdrawal.
