So GUESS WHAT...

anyone remember how i asked why on one of the hospital stays didnt give me a diagnosis? i think a few of you remember...

so i just picked up my records/notes from that hospital stay (which was this time last year about).

well the sheets read "Chronic Paranoid Schizophrenia"

YEP. not suprised but why didnt they tell me that on discharge? i had to get the records to see that diagnosks. and pay for it too.

anyway um
mystery solved sorta. i read all the notes too.

oh and my GAF (global assessment of functioning) was 20.

and for anyone not familiar with the GAF scale - 20 means "Some danger of hurting self or others (e.g., suicide attempts without clear expectation of death; frequently violent; manic excitement) OR occasionally fails to maintain minimal personal hygiene (e.g., smears feces) OR gross impairment in communication (e.g., largely incoherent or mute)."

just lots stuff
i think they are perfectly right this time
