Autism Specialist Says They have changed a SZ Dx Before

So apparently it does happen.

If all this time I have been treated for SZ but actually have autism I will lose it big time.

Time will tell. My appointment will be done as soon as they can fit me in.

Sounded like a clever guy

I hope it’s him doing the assessment as he has worked with psychosis before and now works on neurodevelopment illnesses

I’m already certain that I’m on the autism spectrum and was misdiagnosed. I would not be supprised if I had my diagnosis changed because I’ve suspected for quite some time that I have autism and not sz. I am working towards correcting my diagnosis and moving on with my life. It would also bring me great relief to say I’m on the autism spectrum, rather than, “I’m a schizophrenic”.

Autism and SZ trestments are very similar.
Both use APs to control aggressivity.

It’s possible to have both a sz spectrum disorder and ASD , n.b Mr Squirrel and me and probably others here .
