I have been diagnosed with all three during my mental health journey.

Bp 2 with mixed features and rapid cycling was my first bp dx. My symptoms were rather mild. No psychosis.

Bp 1 by every other dr it seems because in my 20s I started getting more destructive mania.

Then came she 25 when I had my first psychotic episode. I got dxd bp with psychotic features. Still rapid cycling and mixed features too.

I’m 32 now and my pdoc still says bp1, rapid cycling with psychotic features. My psychologist however has seen me for longer and is convinced I have schizoaffective bp
Type with rapid cycling and mixed features. So who knows!
But I DO get psychosis even outside a mood episode.
