schizoaffective?

Posted by med_empowered on January 10, 2005, at 19:20:38

hey everyone! My current diagnosis is
schizophrenia, but I'm wondering if I could be
shicoaffective. Before I was DX'd as
schizophrenic, I was DX'd as Bipolar II. I was
then diagnosed as Bipolar II w/ a thought diorder
and later as mood disorder NOS,
with a thought disorder also NOS. I have
depressive phases in which I sometimes sleep for
days and have delusions/hallucinations (auditory)
of a persecutory nature...the depression can occur
w/o the hallucinations, however, and the
hallucinations can occur independently of
the depression, although they usually precipitate
a depressive spell. I have had a few hypomanic
episodes of little sleep, heightened anxiety,
and increased self-esteem. I've only told my new
shrink about the voices so far. What do you all
think? SChizoaffective, schizophrenic with co-
morbid mood disorder, or flat schizophrenia? I'll
ask my doc, of course, but I need to be prepared
for any DX changes.
