Hi guys, this is just a post to say hi to anyone else living with schizoaffective disorder. My diagnosis was "upgraded" today from bipolar due to mild hallucinations. Does anyone have any advice for learning more about this disorder? How have you coped with your diagnosis?

Please feel free to chime in to any of the threads @sjb800 and share your journey with the community. There are many out there who do not understand schizoaffective - I myself included. It's a great way to advocate and share hope.

Hi there, I have been living with schizoaffective (depressive type) for many years. The Sane fact sheets are a quite good resource to get you started. Best of luck on your journey.
