[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 369538, member: 1169"] I read and reread the DSM IV and the last set of testing on Kanga. There is no way this is just PTSD. DSM IV for Schitzoaffective (abbv.) [B]Two or more of the following during a 1-month period:[/B] (1) delusions (2) hallucinations (3) disorganized speech (4) grossly disorganized or catatonic behavior (5) negative symptoms (eg. affective flattening, alogia, avolition) Note: Only one criteria needed if ... two or more voices conversing with each other. Let's see... (1) delusions [COLOR="Purple"] Well documented by testing in 2007 and 2009[/COLOR] (2) hallucinations [COLOR="Purple"]Documented by various psychiatrists and tdocs in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 Auditory hallucinations consist of a main voice (female, distinct personality and a name) as well as at least one male voice and occasionally many other voices. Voices converse and even argue with each other. Visual hallucinations include two men, one girl and at least one angel.[/COLOR] (3) disorganized speech [COLOR="Purple"]Reported by mother and documented in testing in 2007 and 2009[/COLOR] (4) grossly disorganized or catatonic behavior [COLOR="Purple"]Brief catatonic states witnessed and documented by therapist in 2007.
