I was diagnosed schizoaffective disorder for a one time episode I had 6 years ago. I had recently had fallen and took the brunt of it to my forehead and was unconscious for a short amount of time. I refused to go to the Dr due to the fact my system was dirty. I had also dabbled with Spice. This is when I noticed a change in my thinking nd reasoning. I admit I had a problem... BUT I was diagnosed after being admitted thru ER and given all kinds of psychotropic medications. how can I have a true diagnosis when I don t even recall the first three days I was hospitalized? This diagnosis has followed me since then and has caused me so much pain. I have been treated impartial for this episode.
