Depression ; anxiety: Do not lead to schizophrenia, and schizophrenia is much less prevalent (less than 1.5% lifetime prevalence) than depression and anxiety (up to 17% lifetime prevalence). Manage your depression ; anxiety with the help of cognitive therapy and relaxation training and don't worry about schizophrenia. A mental health professional can give you an accurate diagnosis and reassure you.
