hey, welcome. I was 22 when I was hit with schizoaffective disorder but I had ptsd already. I’m sorry it affected you at such a young age.

Yeah that’s what most people say, how did i get it so young?, it could be from a stress overload or i must have had it ever since i was in my mom stomach because they say it starts in your mom stomach and the most sad thing about it is that it is unnoticeable until it is trigger i believe mine was triggered due to what i said above. I’m also sorry that it affected you at 22 that is also young i’m sorry that it affected everyone here on the website schizophrenia.com at a young age and on the forums and any other mental illness. Thank you for welcoming me to this great website and forums. :slight_smile:
