I’m glad your mood symptoms are under control. According to my mom, mine are not, which feels really strange because mood wise, I feel fine.
@Sardonic, Yes it is possible. Especially if your mood symptoms are acting up at the moment.
@Sardonic, No, she’s not correct. Sza is mostly a thought disorder. Bipolar is a mood disorder. Sza is a combination of Sz and Bipolar disorder together. Bipolar is just bipolar alone.
I am scared no one around me knows what the ■■■■ they’re doing. They’re just saying whatever and throwing meds at me.

When you say “no one” do you mean your pdoc’s? They are not “throwing meds at you”, they are testing out meds to see which ones work for you. It can be a lengthy process to find the right combination of meds that work. You must have patience @Sardonic.
My mom messes with my meds too, choosing which ones I take. And the psychiatrist does it too. They diagnosed me with schizoaffective disorder depressive type but I think nothing’s wrong and they’re just tryimg to medicate me.
I think predominantly I am slightly depressed. It’s not bad enough that people notice. I’m just quiet and shy(around people I don’t know) and have low-ish self esteem.
I can easily function like this, at least so far as what’s normal for me. I don’t really have RL friends except one person I talk to before group, I don’t know how I can get any.
I’m sorry @TheNicestFreak

My mood is great. I think Latuda has a lot to do with it though.
my mom just made me take zoloft and ativan i am so done with meds no more i’m ■■■■■■■ done
Only time I’m really manic or depressed is when my blood sugars are all over the place from eating junk food. Since I’ve become healthier I’ve been a lot more stable.

my mom thinks i’m bipolar should i stop posting here
I can totally relate - my mood symptoms wax and wane but they are always there. I seem to spend about three or four weeks on a high then about the same struggling to get through each day. Getting on top of my mood would really help things.
I actually feel good right now. Before that I felt really good. What sucks is questioning whether some of my feelings and emotions are me or the Bipolar. I guess by definition it’s all me.
Do you feel you aren’t being listened to with regards to your meds? I think @SkinnyMe Is likely right about the doctors looking at different meds.
IMO it’s a much better problem than when they want to stick with meds that don’t work. I could’ve at least exhausted the options available at the time faster. The weight gain I had on those useless drugs was terrible. Although Rexulti might not have existed by that time f that’s what had happened.

Would you abandon us?! 
No one listens to me or what I think. But hey, the fact that you feel good makes me happy. I’m glad for you. My problem is that they’re trying to medicate me so that I don’t think and question. Something in my mind, talking and such is going all the time, telling me this and I believe it. I’m tired of being manipulated.
I guess I shouldn’t be here since I don’t have sz or sza.

How old are you, @Sardonic?
What has your pdoc diagnosed you with @Sardonic? Your mom could be causing your mania by not allowing you to take your AP’s and by giving you anti depressants.
I know I know jk jk I’m just saying can’t we still be friends (:
Btw I would trust in a doctors diagnosis and not opinion
They’re highly trained and specialized for a reason
