Yes, my diagnosis helped me. It was like a sigh of relief. I had finally gotten the right diagnosis and it was like finally this is what is "wrong" with me. This is what I can work on. It gave the doctors the right diagnosis to get the meds right, which for me include two anti-depressants and two anti-psychotics, and ADHD med, and anti-anxiety medication, and a sleep medication. For me this helped me tremendously to get on the right meds. I hardly hallucinate now. And they are briefer episodes. I don't experience as much paranoia. I do have blunted affect which I think is because of the medicine but I'm not sure. Do you want medication? That seems what a diagnosis is useful for but also for me just for defining myself.
