symptoms can include: hallucinations, delusions, paranoia, disorganized thoughts and speech, lack of empathy, flat affect, memory problems, periods of mania (which includes impulsivity, increased energy, etc) periods of depression (lack of motivation, feeling down most of the time, etc) and lack of motivation.

Just like schizophrenia/bipolar/depression this can cause struggles in school and home life.

For schizoaffective disorder to be considered you must have at least 2 weeks where you aren’t having a major mood episode but have psychotic symptoms.

DID and OSDD are DISSOCIATIVE disorders. The existence of a system/alters is a SYMPTOM of the disorders. They are caused by DISSOCIATION. OSDD1 is not the only valid type of OSDD, and other types don't have alters as a symptom-- they are still dissociative disorders.
