I got that dx. Best of both worlds sz and bipolar. Apparently very close to bipolar with psychotic features, my doc seems to think one dx one day then the other on the next. Treatment is what matters tho not the dx.

We SZA can’t make up our minds what we are. I mean BP or SZ so be both…That’s cool too. TBH still sucks.

Thats my official diagnosis but my psychiatrist usually just says I have paranoid schizophrenia. Apples and oranges.

I’m schizoaffective…I don’t think I’m bi-polar because I’m not either extremely happy going to extremely sad…I’m mostly extremely depressed, or have no emotion. I do think I have a bit of OCD but have never been officially diagnosed with it.

There’s something called a mixed episode, when the two poles clash and roar at the same time

I was diagnosed with that once but then two other providers disagreed and it is not anymore my diagnosis. I have schizo affective disorder depressive type.
