What type of schizoaffective do you have, depressive or bipolar?
T-has me as scizoaffective bipolar type
Pdoc-has me as bipolar 1 w. Psychosis
I honestly think they both are the same dx. But pdoc dx. "Looks better"
*What would you say is more prominent in your illness, mood issues or psychosis issues?
I would say mood but i do constantly have a tactile hallucination and some regular auditory hallucinations (trying to find high pitch noise that aren't there)
How long did it take you to realize and/or accept that you had an illness?*
Still really haven't, I like how my pdoc words it better. I can accept that I have bipolar and that I have psychosis just I can't accept I'm not on the bipolar spectrum. But a YouTube video blog has really helped me come closer to accepting it.
How long did it take your doctors to diagnose you correctly?*
Took them about 8 yrs but to be honest I've only ever been truthful with this therapist.
Do you trust the diagnosis or do you doubt it? Why or why not? I trust it because it explains all my symptoms but I hate and fight the dx because it's not on the bipolar spectrum.
