Thanks, LT. From what I gather, the frontline treatment for Schizoaffective disorder is medication, not therapy. The medication either works or it doesn't work. Mine mostly works but I have "breakthroughs" into psychosis where the medication doesn't work. Usually it then gets adjusted. But since there is a depressive aspect to Schizoaffective disorder some of my past T's have treated that. Like Former T. (Oh how I wish she would take me back!) The schizoaffective is what cripples my life the most so I imagine that is what I most need treatment for.
