HOW COMMON ARE PEOPLE DIAGNOSED AS SCHIZOPHRENIA, MISDIAGNOSED. AND LATER THEY FIND WHAT THEY KNEW ALL ALONG THAT THEY HAD A SLEEP PROBLEM? I HAVE READ A FEW STORY'S ABOUT IT BUT WANDERED IF IT IS MORE PREVALENT THAN I THINK

Hi huneybee41, how are you? Can you give the specific statistics regarding the incidence? You need to consider only the authenticated studies and survey which are published and not on unreliable source. Some times there can be more than one disorder co-existing and the patient might not seek medical attention for social and identity reasons. It is very difficult to say the correct incidence. Take care and share your thoughts.
