im starting to question if i really have this disorder. i was dx'd at 15. its not that i suspect i dont. its that i dont even know. i dont know what to think. im severely confused.
third is:
if i go to a psychiatrist to check my Dx. can i refuse their meds? will they put me away if i do?
last time i saw psychiatrist was literally a year ago nearly this week. and they put as schizoaffective
but i fear its just cause i said my past standing Dx was schizoaffective.

I can say for the first question in the UK on the NHS MH service this is correct, my T has a weekly meeting and discuss' each patient between themselves
Our ears burn a lot
They can't put you away unless you are at risk of harm to yourself or others. It's your body you choose what you put into it. Don't be pressured to take any medication you don't want.
