I think I have a schizoaffective disorder.

 

I have been looking it up online. I have always though that the depression Iv'e been diagnosed with missed out a few key elements of what I suffer. For example, I often suffer from delusional thinking, I hallucinate and see things. I am always angry. But I feel like if I go to the doctor and tell him I think this he will not listen to me and brush it off, and give me band aid anti depressant drugs for depression and ignore the psychotic elements of my disorder.

 

I have gone for help time and again and feel like I have been miss diagnosed.

:confused:

This must be awful for you, and I'm so sorry.

 

At your next consultation (please do find another doctor) stress the severity of the psychotic symptoms.

Only a complete incompetent would ignore them and assign a standard AD.

 

Do you have a family member who can maybe accompany you?

 

You express yourself well but maybe having another person to help advocate along side you would be doubly effective.

 

What do you think?
