Hi,

Schizophernia is NOT a genetic disorder and it is NOT inherited. Schizophrenia is an extreme reaction of distress with hallucinations and delusions. It IS possible to be be DID and also have psychosis just as it is possible to have a whole collection of mental health labels. There are some mental health labels that fit together better than others but there is nothing to stop someone with DID having psychosis also.

On a different point DID and psychosis can get mixed up or misinterpreted by some professionals at first glance but in time it is clear whether someone is DID or psychotic or indeed in the midst of DID and psychosis.
