Im going through a stage where i really really doubt i have schizoaffective disorder i think its just schizophrenia

I haven’t had alleged “mania” in a long time i was only put in full lockdown once due to.”mania” and I have episodes before haldol where I felt on top of the world BUT I think it might of just been schizophrenia

I wouldn’t of done it without psychosis or whatever

Thinking you don’t have it is a symptom, a common one.

It’s pretty cruel, like the disorder was designed as a mean joke.

Fortunately I’ve never had this problem, the way I see it if you’ve been through one psychotic episode, you know you have the disorder for life, since it’s incurable. If you experience a period of time without symptoms, you’re probably in remission from successful treatment, but the minute you drop your medications you are inviting a full relapse.

You can have other mental health problems at the same time… I have sza so my bipolar depression kicks in sometimes in addition to the sz symptoms. It’s hitting me real hard right now. It is what it is I guess. Don’t forget the times when you were grappling with full symptoms, if you have those memories they should help guide you to the conclusion that you do in fact need your meds.

Just my two cents. I don’t know you well personally but I’ve seen it in people I did know for awhile especially on the old forum.

I don’t think you should talk in that way to yourself especially. Be kind to yourself.

I doubt my diagnosis too. Was what happened in the past mis interpreted ? Mis judged ? Exaggerated ? Were they lying to me ?

Maybe they weren’t lying in the past but they are lying now. Playing games. Actors. Fakery.

If you get full blown depression then chances are great that you suffer with SZA

I’m in similar boat @Fisherman1992

I have not been full manic for probably 10 years. Meds prevent it. Maybe your meds prevent it too.

I have still depression and psychosis but I doubt the mania sometimes. So I understand how you feel.
