What are your diagnosises?

Diagnosises? The plural is diagnoses

Mine are:
Asperger's Syndrome (2010)
Anxiety NOS (Saw it on my GPs computer when I last went to see him, it was probably put there this year when I explained I've had anxiety problems for a long time)

Mine vary depending on the doctor. Most these overlap and are differant disorders on the same spectrum

Autistic Disorder
Aspergers
PDD-NOS
Neurological Developmental Disorder
Schizotypal Personality Disorder
Schizoaffective-Bipolar type
Schizophrenia
ADHD
Learning Disorder NOS
Dyslexia/Dysgraphia
Sensory Motor Intergration Dysfunction
Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Mood Incongruent Psychotic Depression
Atypical Narcolepsy vs. Hypersomnia with REM Dysregulation
Subarachnoid Cyst Syndrome
and Im not sure if i was offically diagnosed but Catatonic Features

These were all official diagnoses at some time or another. I know theres a couple more one time diagnoses I'm forgeting but I cant remember this minute. I also did not include things that were basically the same as whats listed. They sometimes tend to use slightly different terms for these.

Officially:

Aspergers Syndrome
Irritable Bowel
Major depression w/ psychotic features (now in remission)

Unofficially (by my current psych):

Dyscalculia

Asperger's Syndrome
Anxiety disorder-not otherwise specified

I won't go into the more medical diagnoses, cause I didn't think that's what the thread was about, plus I have a complicated medical history. Doctors/psychologists have considered many other psychological disorders with me, but the above two are the only ones I am officially diagnosed with (the other ones I don't think I have, anyway). My mom thinks I have a sensory issue (forgot the name-she knows it as she is an OT), but I figure that goes along with AS.

1. Depersonalization Disorder
2. Asperger's Syndrome (however...)
3. PTSD
4. Panic with Agoraphobia
5. Anxiety/Depression

Even though I have been officially diagnosed with AS, I am more likely on the opposite end of a giant spectrum (Autism--Neurotypical--Schizophrenia) with Schizotypal. I need to have a word with my psychiatrist about this.

Asperger's Syndrome
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Depression
ADHD*
Psychosis**

* My psychiatrist keeps suggesting I have this, because I have such a hard time sitting still. However, I think my restlessness has more to do with over-stimulation than anything else.

** When I was 15, I had really bad intrusive thoughts and a desire to hurt myself and others. My psychiatrist prescribed me Risperidone, an antipsychotic, which took all of the bad thoughts and desires away. So I think that I may have been at the beginning stages of psychosis, even though my psychiatrist never outright said that I had it.

When I started school; I was given diagnoses of ADHD & dyslexia. A psych who re-certified me for dyslexia in high-school suspected Asperger Syndrome but couldn't test. Like 7 years ago when I was about 21 & having lots of emotional problems. my GP(general practitioner) suspected I had Bipolar Depression, Depression with minor Schizophrenia or Psychotic Depression. The 1st psych I saw said I had Asperger Syndrome & sever emotional problems & she refereed me for testing. AS got ruled out in favor of Schizoid Personality Disorder but I was also diagnosed with Borderline Personality disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Personality disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Social Anxiety disorder, Post Traumatic Stress disorder, Panic Anxiety Disorder, Codependency, I was also told that I had all the main symptoms of Schizotypal Personality disorder. They also all seemed to think I had major learning problems. I suspect some of these diagnoses wer suspected because I was suffering a psychotic depression at the time & I was on different meds that wer constantly being changed around
