the Psychiatrist told me that my symptoms are very similar to these three things, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, & Mood Disorder. She said i have like a mixture of all three of these things well symptom wise. What do you people think it is. 1.Brain Fog (Severe) 2.Vascular Headaches 3.Migraines 4.Full Sensitivity to Light 5.Headaches from bright light 6.Color mixing (Visual) 7.Memory problems 8.Visual perceptual and depth loss (Severe) 9.Bluish-purple hands (Cold Hands) 10.Sunglasses make me more foggy 11.Glasses make me see things farther away then they really are 12.Can鈥檛 concentrate 13.Can鈥檛 pay attention 14.Palpitations 15.I Can Hear Voices 16.Mood Swings 17.Shortness of Breath 18.Dejavou 19.Sunglasses make things appear like they are moving 20.Ground looks elevated (Frequently) 21.Reaction time is dull 22.Feels like I鈥檓 not really there or here 23.See black spots 24.See black lines 25.Confused (Often) 26.Forget what I just read 27.Checkered & stripe shirts hurt my eyes 28.Dry throat 29.Dry lips 30.Black on white paper, hurts & hard to read 31.Stores make me get severe headaches, extreme fog, and make feel like I could vomit 32.Sometimes feel like I am spinning 33.Room not very well lit gives me a headache and makes more foggy 34.Vision Blurry 35. Feels like people are out to get me (Frequently) 36. Trouble thinking of words & forget what I was going to say 37.Moving objects are hard to follow (soccer ball) 38. I see the ground move side to side like I am on a boat 39. Brain tells me to do stuff that I don鈥檛 want to like hurt someone 40. Feels like I am fighting against myself My first response is, who do you mean by "you people"?Since a psychiatrist has given you something close to a diagnosis, my best advice would be to continue to see the psychiatrist if you like and trust him/her until they can figure it all out. Psychiatry is not like other fields of medicine. A lot of the time the diagnosis cannot be made right away. It may take time, medication trials, and maybe therapy to help you start feeling better. I believe the most important thing is not the name that the illness is called, but getting someone (a psychiatrist) who can, over time, figure out with you what the problems are. I am a psychiatrist and you have quite a number of symptoms. There is really no way of saying exactly what illness you have, if in fact you have an illness, just based on the symptom list. So, your psychiatrist is right, you have symptoms that are found in mood disorders (of which, bipolar disorder is one) and schizophrenia. However, you have many, MANY, more symptoms that could be attributible to other illnesses. So again, I suggest rather than asking a question like this to people who are not trained to give you an informed answer, stick with your psychiatrist, or a psychiatrist that you like and trust, and eventually they will figure it out. By the way, other illnesses you may have based on your symptom list include schizoaffective disorder, a personality disorder, or a medical condition that is giving you symptoms similar to a psychiatric disorder. Most importantly don't give up hope, and you will get better. Good luck! There is definately something going on in your brain....... The diagnosis' sound about right..... though the migraines may not be related......... a lot of those symtoms are just pure and simple migraines :( Have migraines, and several mental disorder, meds help! If you hear voices at all, it definitely has something to do with Schizophrenia. My goodness. With all the problems you have, it's a miracle you even managed to switch the computer on, get onto this page and type all this. You definitely have a problem alright. It's called having an imaginary psychiatrist and being an attention seeker. I have worked with a lot of students with countless cases of genuine psychiatric problems. You're genuinely just bored. Hello. I think it does not matter the exact name of your illness. Most mental illnesses symptoms overlap and they are usually treated with similar meds that balance brain neurotrasmiters. (Most mental illnesses are caused by an imbalance in brain neurotrasmiters). Do not worry, you are in the hand of the doctor. He will prescribe meds that will diminish the symptoms whatever it is |
