First dx was by a nurse practitioner when I was 16 and went like this:
My dad: She gets angry and sad
Nurse practitioner: Sounds like bipolar

Other docs/NPs just piggybacked off of that until I turned 18 and got a "real" 30 minute evaluation. They dx'd me with "undifferentiated schizophrenia" and sent me on my way. Last year I had another "evaluation" and she looked at my history and said "schizoaffective!"

I really feel like cptsd could explain a lot of my symptoms. Just this year a counselor that I've been working through trauma issues with said she thinks my psychosis is really just ptsd "coming out sideways." Idk but that makes more sense to me if that does happen. I mean most of my trauma happened between 12-16 and my symptoms started at some point in there towards the later years.

Just my $0.02. Would just make sense since most meds don't really seem to do anything for me.
