developing schizoaffective after schizophrenia - Eridan - 06-10-2026

I've seen many people say that they developed schizophrenia/psychosis after developing a mood disorder, but I don't often see people who had it the other way around. Is there anyone else who developed a mood disorder after their schizophrenia onset? If so, did your mood disorder have any effect on your psychosis and how it presents?

I developed a severe panic disorder long before I ever hallucinated anything. I wasn't under the care of a doctor at this time but I consider it to be the onset of my condition.
