I don't think so.
Misdiagnosis could be one reason why someone isn't responding to medication. Medication can even cause psychiatric symptoms. I know this is very possible because I had Prozac induced mania even though I don't have bipolar disorder. Physical conditions such as hormonal disorders can do the same.
I think some people are getting major diagnoses because of medication side effects. For example someone takes lorazepam and hears voices when on it, because it puts them in stage one sleep even though they are awake, but drowsy. A careless psychiatrist will give them a schizophrenia or schizoaffective diagnosis.
