I was diagnosed with schizoaffective due to a situation I had and I believe I was misdiagnosed
Post Body

I had a situation back in July where I recently remembered that I was autistic and it was like my whole world shattered for some reason. Like I unlocked a new memory and could not handle it at all. then proceeded to cry for like two days and on the second day had a panic attack, which then lead to what was almost a seizure that same night. I didn’t have one because I was trying to stop it. I have had a history of seizures in the past but not many at all and that one was the most recent one that I’ve had in years and it wasn’t even a full seizure considering I never went unconscious. My tests have always came back negative when I came to epilepsy.

After the seizure I started acting really paranoid and scared for a few weeks, kind of like a scared child. I have never had this happen before up until that day. A few days later I started acting really paranoid and weird again which caused me to be involuntarily put in a behavioral facility for ten days.

Fast forward to now, I don’t have any of these symptoms at all. these symptoms only lasted for a month. September up and til now I feel back to normal again but they are still saying I’m schizoaffective but it doesn’t make any sense at all. I don’t relate to any schizoaffective symptoms at all nor things I’ve research about people with it. I don’t know how to fight the diagnosis at all considering every time I bring it up to someone it’s brushed off and they continue talking as if I have it. I really don’t know how to describe this situation to doctors at all to make them consider getting rid of this diagnosis. It’s been really bothering me.

I do know that I am autistic and have adhd and I’m unsure if I am bipolar or not.
