  • Honestly, I am leaning toward the psychiatrist being correct. From your limited description of your symptoms, it does sound like either schizoaffective disorder or schizophrenia. I am not a mental health professional at all, so you may want to get a third opinion from a psychiatrist or psychologist.

    Treatment is expensive for any mental health condition, it really is unfortunate and unfair that there aren’t more free/accessible supports. Sometimes it does feel like you’re getting scammed (I have ADHD, most medications are very expensive and pharmacies sometimes treat you like a drug addict), but taking medicine can help a lot depending on the person.

    Medication for schizophrenia has come a long way in the last 3 decades.
