I have been diagnosed originally with schizoid PD, later schizotypal and later with schizophrenia.
With schizoid diagnosis got tiny temp meds that did not help. With schizotypal diagnosis got more meds that still left me unstable. With schizophrenia diagnosis got enough meds to help me.
If the doctor under diagnoses a person, they will not treat them effectively.
