That I was diagnosed as having schizoaffective disorder when I was 18. I am so confused. I never knew what the diagnosis was from that hospital stay.

When I finally got out of that hospital I was taken off all meds by my outpatient pdoc at the time. She said that I am not diagnosed as what they said and then diagnosed me as having Social Anxiety.

Then in 2009 I was diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder.

I went from 2009 til 2011 with that diagnosis and then was hospitalized with a severe manic episode. And now I am diagnosed as Bipolar I.

I am just a little confused because they were on the right path when I was 18 and I never knew til now. I requested the information from when I stayed at the hospital in 2005. I suppose things turned out the way they were supposed to. Although I believe it may have gone better if I was properly diagnosed.
