The hospital didn't think the case was serious enough.

Thank you just-me. That made me feel more "sane." Thank you for saying it isn't psychosis or Evil Schizophrenia but sadly you say you ain't a doctor. I'm normal!! !! ! I love being normal.


I know you are NOT crazy.
But I do think you may have what I have.

I was looking through my medical records to see what I was diagnosed with. I was looking because I used to have the same problems your having now.

I found that I was diagnosed with " major depressive disorder sever with psycotic features. "

This does NOT mean your crazy. I don't think anyone here would call me crazy eather and ive been diagnosed with this.

This dissorder makes you have hallucinations from being stressed and depressed.

But when you life gets less stressfull you get better.
Then you go into somthing called Remission.

That means your better but the symptoms may come back someday. But some people's symptoms never come back, so there cured.

I hope you can get a diagnoses of some sort so you can work on getting better.
You can get better!

I am not on any medication and I have not had an episode in over 3 years!

I wish you the best of luck and if you ever want to talk on pm, just let me know.

I feel like we are the same in some ways and I hope you can get better like I did.

Good luck firebird!

I'm not depressed. I am closer to being manic or hypomanic.

I think I either have bipolar 1 without psychotic features or more likely bipolar 2 without psychotic features (hypomania doesn't include psychosis anyways that would automatically make it bipolar 1 and a full blown manic episode). I ain't psychotic because I know I am the best doctor in the history of doctors! OK, maybe that part about being a doctor is a delusion but since I know so much about this stuff, that is why I FEEL like a doctor! Even some doctors have admitted that I actually know more than them! Now that is sad.....
