If you were to imagine the psychotic disorders as being on a spectrum, from BP-II bordering on unipolar depression to SZ, and were to compare it to the colour spectrum, from red, via orange, yellow, lime, green, turquoise/cyan, to blue, indigo and violet, purple, what colour would you be, would your BP (or SZA/BP) be?
SZ would be violet/purple. And yellow and lime separates BP-I and -II. Blue separates SZ and BP-I (SZA/BP). You may combine colours, making your colour brighter (or more pink/magenta), if it depends (maybe aided by meds) and/or you are (somewhat) unsure. I'd say I am a rather light turquoise. Edit: If you don't meet "clinical significance" for all symptoms (BP-II primarily for the depression symptoms, the rest primarily mania/psychotic symptoms) or you are unsure whether you have them, you might go for a darker colour.

Off meds I'm probably a periwinkle. On meds I'm a dandelion yellow.

I'd probably be a yellowy lime color. I wouldn't call myself yellow or call myself lime, but something in between.

On meds, I am just more greyish turquoise (they really help, but qualitatively there is little change, maybe slightly more towards green).
Edit: Also (quite) a bit more mixing of colours: there is always some blue towards violet or purple in there.
