I got sick late in life. I was 38. Didnāt get a paranoid schizophrenia diagnosis until almost 40 but thatās always what it was. I just didnāt know it at the time. It took me until I was about 44 to figure out that I actually had it. When I was 45 I finally found a med combo that kinda works.
Now I am 48. So I have been stable for about three years.

At approximately 35 or 36. I was having symptoms in 1993 or thereabouts when I was 34. My memory is kind of bad, but I really donāt remember being disturbed before then. I got sick when I started getting religious and trying to go to church. I thought God was talking to me.

I was diagnosed with psychotic depression at 17 and sz at 25, but all my doctorās believe the sz actually started at 17 and it was just a misdiagnosis of psychotic depression. But still early for being a woman.

Psychotic episode at 21
Now 22 stable on meds. I donāt really know my dz, my doc ask me if I want to be hospitalized for a review and a dz. But I passed. In my city the hospital is old, depressive, destroyed, etc
If I want to be hospitalized Im going to another city where I was hospitalized at 20 and where the paint of the ceiling of the hospital dosent fall. And the chamber for agresive people have at least a window.

Iāve probably suffered mental illness symptoms since I was around 19, but havenāt been formally diagnosed until my mid twenties. Even then, it was psychotic disorder NOS, which somebody told me was a bs diagnosis. Later on, I got slapped with paranoid sz diagnosis. I only half accept it, because I believe some of my so-called fixed beliefs and delusions are actually true, while others I can clearly see are not founded by credible evidence.
I was diagnosed at 23 after spending only a week in a mental hospital. Weird I thought it took like six months to properly diagnose it. Hmmmā¦
But anyway Iām 26 now and the āofficialā diagnosis is schizoaffective bipolar type.
