I was diagnosed with schizoaffective some years ago. Nobody in the seems to be able to give me a straight answer to this. I have seen many pdoc and they all don't agree with this diagnosis. Which confuses me even more.
What I find odd, is the fact that I don't always experience voices etc on a regular basis. I find with this eating disorder, there are constant voices that battle in my head. But that doesn't have to mean that I am schizoaffective. I am impatiently waiting for a call from my old pdoc. I had him where I lived before. We had a great relationship but we both moved away. He is not far from me and my family doctor sent in a referal to him for me to see him again. He is the one who diagnosed me with this disorder.
I hope so much that he will see me again. I have so many questions for him. He knew me more then I knew myself. lolol, that may sound silly but its true. It was like he could read my mind. He had such a way of pulling stuff out of me that I didn't even realize was bothering me. I just can't wait for his office to phone. I don't care if I have to drive an hour and a half, one way to see him. It's worth it!!
Anyway, my point to this was, Does anyone know much about this disorder?? I know you are not doctors, but sometimes living it is more helpful then just reading it in books. Really, I know what's wrong with my kids when they are sick before the doctors even do; lolol. True though. Not knocking down doctors or anything. Without them, we would be helpless.
Sorry for the babbling. I am nervous about going for IV's today. Just watching the fluids go in makes me panic.
