What is the difference between schizophrenia and bipolar disorder?


I know it is not the same but when I read about it they are classified both in psychosis

Schizophrenia: disordered thinking, hallucinations, paranoid ideation, etc.

Bipolar: alternating episodes of mania (extreme happiness, hypersexuality, irritability, etc) and depression


See: http://psychcentral.com/lib/2006/the-dif... for better information. =) That site explains it better than I can!
