Schizaffective Disorder[edit] Schizoaffective Disorder can be treated in a self help setting even thought it is not usually a utilized practice for treating Schizoaffective disorder, but it can be helpful for people diagnosis with this mental illness because it teachers coping skills. From the webpage Psych Centeral: schizoaffective Disorder the self help treatment is described as " self-help methods for the treatment of this disorder are often overlooked by the medical profession because very few professionals are involved in them. However, support groups in which patients can participate, sometimes with family members, other times in a group with others who suffer from this same disorder, can be very helpful. Often these groups, like regular therapy groups, will focus on specific topics each week which will be of benefit to the client. Many support groups exist within communities throughout the world which are devoted to helping individuals with this disorder share their commons experiences and feelings. Patients can be encouraged to try out new coping skills and emotion regulation with people they meet within support groups. They can be an important part of expanding the individual's skill set and develop new social relationships with others."[1]. From Wikipedia it states"Participating in internet forums is sometimes used by people with schizoaffective disorder in addition to outpatient medication treatment"[2]

Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia. We have compiled a list of guidance for students and new editors:


 * 1) Use high quality sources for medical content. This is described at WP:MEDRS. High quality sources include review articles (note this is not the same as peer reviewed), position statements from national and internationally recognized bodies (think CDC, WHO, NICE, FDA, etc), and major medical textbooks. Lower quality sources may be removed.
 * 2) References go after not before punctuation (see WP:MOS)
 * 3) We use very few capital letters and very little bolding. Only the first word of a heading is usually capitalized.
 * 4) Do not use the url from the inside net of your university library. The rest of the world cannot see it.
 * 5) If you use textbooks we need page numbers.
 * 6) Please format your references as explained at WP:MEDHOW or like the ones already in the article. This is simple once you get the PMID / ISBN.
 * 7) Every sentence can be referenced. We reference more densely than other sources.
 * 8) Never "copy and paste" from sources. We run copy and paste detection software on new edits.
 * 9) Section order typically follows the instructions here at WP:MEDMOS
 * 10) Please talk to us. Wikipedia works by collaboration and this takes place on the talk pages of both articles and user.

Again welcome and thank you for joining us.

P.S. Please share this with your fellow learners and instructors.
