It is quite common actually, just take a poll.


I was hospitalized for my first crippling auditory hallucinations as my pdoc wanted to add risperdal to my cocktail...


Cited "BP2 featuring psychotic depression", or some shyt like that.


I will never forget how shocked I felt when I read that.


Anyway, I've seen LOTS of doctors, nobody has ever changed my dx, and I think that's because they're realizing this beast is a spectrum and it's not all neat and tidy like they first suspected.


Geez a year or two ago a mixed episode would've gotten u a type 1 dx, now they're acknowledging mixed episodes occur in type 2 as well.


Anyway, just from reading on this forum you will see that type 2's also experience hallucinations, especially when really stressed.
