did you ever feel misdiagnosed because you feel well everyday for 7 years

I felt that way for years till I went Nuts last year and had to be Hospitalized twice with a span of a month.
Wow I would love to feel that way for 7 months let alone 7 years.
But, whatever I can get, right??
Are you doing better now?
I get that way and I’ve not gone that long without incident. I function pretty well and have always had pretty good insight, so I don’t feel like I’m as bad as I should be for having sz, even though I know that’s just the stigma talking.
I’ve been out of the hospital for a year and a half, which is by far the longest I’ve gone since being diagnosed. They really about the hospital here, though, and where I lived before they hospitalized a lot more frequently. If I can go 2 years without incident I want to start really lowering my doses.
Yes doing much better now, thanks @twinklestars.

Have you had more than just the one psychosis? If not misdiagnosis seems plausible
Mmmm I don’t really think I have mania as an issue and don’t really find myself to be bipolar so I may argue that at my next pdoc meeting. But then again what’s the point, I’m pretty stable right now.
Lately me and my doctors are trying to figure out if I have true psychosis or if it was a sleep disorder all along mimicking it.
