What's the difference between Schizo-Affective Disorder & Schizotypal Personality DIsorder?


Question:


Answers:
Schizoaffective disorder is caused by chemicals in the brain and includes symptoms of psychosis as well as extreme mood swing. Schizotypal personality disorder is an engrained part of someone's personality usually caused by childhood issues and is more likely a learned behavior. It will not respond to medications.
hmmm i totally forgot!!!
Schizotypal personality disorder, or simply schizotypal disorder, is a personality disorder that is characterized by a need for social isolation, odd behaviour and thinking, and often unconventional beliefs such as being convinced of having extra sensory abilities.

Its basically the same thing
I believe the difference is that schizo -affective disorder has more depression in it along with the other behavior issues.
