Compare and contrast the characteristics of schizophrenia and dissociative identity disorder. be sure to include when each disorder is likely to develop key characteristics.

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder as well as dissociative identity disorder.

The schizophrenia is characterised by a lack of understanding of what's reality or mind's fiction, as well as an abnormal social behaviour. Some of the most common symptoms are hearing voices that can't be heard by others, confused thinking, lack of emotional or social involvement and skills, lack of motivation, and others. The symptoms start gradually from late youth to early adulthood and may last for a long period or lifetime if not treated.

The dissociative identity disorder is characterised by the presence of at least two different, and somewhat lasting, personalities in one person. Beside these alternative personalities, there is also the lack of memory for important information. Of course, these are considered symptoms of the dissociative identity disorder when they are not caused by any other medical condition, drug, or drug abuse, or infantile imagination. Symptoms may be present all throughout life, being observable since from childhood to early adulthood.
