I know. Another denial thread. Blah blah blah.

But seriously, how can you be sure about your diagnosis?

And if you're not sure about your diagnosis, what could you have instead?

I know sometimes it's easy to tell. I mean, obviously a person who has episodes of cloud nine and does everything mania related and also has episodes of depression, is bipolar.

But what if your symptoms aren't as clear cut?

What if they present themselves in a different way?

(Sorry. This thread is because I was re-diagnosed as schizoaffective disorder bipolar type, and I'm still kind of coming to terms with that and what it means and blah, and I'm pretty sure I was psychotic for two months and both of the delusions I had were broken away by geodon, and it's just scary when you have delusions that you didn't even know were delusions, so I feel like I did when I got out of the hospital in January because of a mixed/mania psychotic break, and I'm just PISSED. I'm so angry! I have the rage! I think every time I have some sort of psychotic related break situation I'm going to be pissed off about it afterwards. I have gone on drives and just screamed. I'm so mad!!! And I'm not in a *****ing episode right now. I've felt fine for awhile now. The last two months I felt fine! This is shytty.)
