What type do you have? Does your symptoms cycle or are they chronic? What are you’re main symptoms?
Ill go first. Depressive type. Cycles with minor chronic symptoms. Main symptoms: depression, auditory and visual hallucinations, paranoia, anhedonia, avolition, and flat affect.
I have bipolar type.
A bit of both. I go through episodes of severe depression, hypomania, mania, or a mixed mood (depressive symptoms and manic symptoms at the same time).
My visual hallucinations also come and go, but it doesn’t really follow a pattern. Seems random. I might be seeing “ghosts” and shadow people for a week, or a month, and then it just stops for a while.
Same with auditory hallucinations… I might be bothered every day, for months, and then they go away for a while.
I don’t know how to answer this, cause for me, it completely depends on the day or week. My brain loves to switch things up, keep me on my toes, so to speak.
My doctors so far have suspicions that I’m Schizoaffective but I don’t know if they’ve settled on it being a type.
Bipolar type for me. It goes in cycles have had periods where cronic. My biggest delusion is I believe I have telepathy. Even medicated it doesnt ever completely leave my mind. Manic this becomes very strong. Then just your usual stuff voice, delusions, very suspicious, and very afraid of everything.
I am SZA bi polar type. I don’t know if it really is a mood disorder seems like a thought disorder. Is that what it means anyway? Has anyone ever defined the relationship between thought and emotions? I have symptoms I thought caused by thoughts that pop up from nowhere for some people. I have a lot of visual and auditory hallucinations, more when I am in the mental hospital. If I draw for awhile and close my eyes I see designs and drawings I wish I could do. Auditory hallucinations are low and quiet, very quiet.
My mood swings are high without my mood stabilizer and I don’t go low afterwards but I’ve kept it in control so I don’t know. I lose mindfulness when I go high but am sometimes intellectually stimulated.
I am motivated by boredom which is painful.
And I believe in growing out of your symptoms whether you refute them or not.
Self Esteem keeps me alive.
Either bipolar disorder or schizoaffective bipolar type.
The doctors are confused.
So am I
I have schizoaffective bipolar type or at least that’s what I was diagnosed with. I’ve had episodes of what seemed like mania. Mostly I’ve had delusions and depression and negative symptoms. I’m doing good now this year so far, I just need to shower more.
