Why did my psychiatrist diagnose me with schizoaffective

I don’t even have mania so I don’t even know why I am the bipolar type. Is he seeing behaviors that I’m not aware of?

I think if you are severely depressed it can be considered schizoaffective. You don’t necessarily have to have mania but don’t quote me on that. Look it up. That’s one thing I have never been diagnosed with. Pretty much have had everything else though.

schizoaffective = schizophrenia + mood
whether it be bipolar or depression.
