How many personalities does a schizophrenic person have?


Question:


Answers:
Usually just 1. Dissociative identity disorder (formerly known as multiple personality disorder, or split personality) is a separate disorder from schizophrenia. It is extremely rare, and many people believe that it does not exist at all.

Other Answers:
It depends, at least 2.

Schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder are two totally different mental problems. Schizophrenia is characterized by delusions, which usually have to do with either the FBI hunting them (paranoia) or them being Jesus or Elvis etc (delusions of grandeur) I have one, No you don't, yes I do, no you don't!! Excuse me while I settle this..


One. Schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder are two separate things.


A person can never really tell how many someone has.

More than one

Huh, is that right,

Yes that's the way it is.


A mutliple amount, there is no set number. People with schizophrenia do not have multiple personalities, they just have a break in reality and have hallucinations, paranoia, experience things that aren't real.


Don't answer that.

Why not?

'Cuz you don't know the answer.

Yes I do.

No you don't.

Shut up!

No, you shut up!

Both of you shut up! I'm trying to sleep.

we never counted 'em Schizophrenia describes a category of chronic mental illnesses (schizophrenic disorders) that have in common psychosis (being out of touch with reality), thought disturbances (delusions and hallucinations), mood disorders (blunted or inappropriate emotional expression), a disturbed sense of self and one's relationship to the external world (loss of ego boundaries or withdrawal), and changes in behavior (bizarre or purposeless and stereotyped activity or inactivity). The manifestations of schizophrenia vary among individuals and affect many aspects of behavior, personality, thinking, and emotions. schizophrenic does not mean you have multiple personalities.
