Was I misdiagnosed?

I’m beginning to think I was diagnosed with sza just so they could medicate my beliefs away.

It is normal for u to think this. Its part of the disease.

It feels like people are saying everything I think is “part of the disease” but I guess I feel like I’m fine. I don’t hallucinate or anything.

You don’t need to hallucinate in order to have schizophrenia.
Delusions that feel very real, and that you think you see proof of everywere, are also part of the disease.

I guess it’s just because I don’t feel ill, I feel awake.

the thing about psychosis is that you loose touch with whats normal, it impairs your ability to tell whats right. you may feel like youre not ill but its the psychosis masking the illness underneath

@Sardonic, In my experience, almost all sza’s think they are misdiagnosed. Almost all bipolars think they are misdiagnosed too by the way. It’s just part of these two diseases.

I am frustrated. I cannot tell what’s OCD, what’s delusion, and what’s real. My mind is a ■■■■■■■ mess. I just keep asking myself why I should believe the people of this world when I feel with everything in me that something’s off, that I don’t belong here, that people are trying to trick me into ignoring the truth.

I get distracted sometimes, and laugh and enjoy. But this feeling always comes back no matter what. And each day I wake up and it gets stronger. I don’t even know why I’m here really. Because I’m lonely I guess. There’s an OCD chatroom I frequent too. I’m not sure I ever even had OCD. I wonder if I was just waking up. I guess I’m just clinging to whatever I can. I feel just wrong.

I mean, I obviously have some degree of insight that maybe I’m wrong, or else I wouldn’t be here. It’s like, I accept the possibility that I could be wrong, but I don’t think that I am wrong. So why am I here? I don’t know. I just don’t know.

Sometimes diagnosis change. But that’s doesnt hapoen very often if you’ve been thurougly examined :slightly_smiling_face:

My psychiatrist keeps mentioning OCD this and OCD that with me.
Now she tells me that my paranoia is linked to my OCD anxiety!

I’m now wondering if my Schizoaffective dx still stands!!

People with OCD don’t need Antipsychotics, plain and simple!

I am tempted to throw my risperidone in the garbage!!

This is so confusing to me.

This ■■■■■■■ sucks!

I’d mention that to your doctor and let him know how you feel. And maybe he can clarify something to you so it makes better sense :slightly_smiling_face:

I still experience psychosis though, so I don’t know.
Bipolar with psychotic features and OCD?

This whole OCD diagnosis is messing me up.
She keeps bringing it up for everything.

I see her in 3 weeks and I’m going to talk it over with her once again.

Yeah you should definitely ask because that sounds like it’s confusing you too. I am currently diagnosed with both sza and OCD. I’m starting to think that nothing’s wrong with me and that the system is just trying to medicate me.
