My son has schizoaffective disorder. The first diagnosis was bipolar with psychosis and now it is schizoaffective, what this is, is having schizoaphria (sp) and bipolar. The thought disorder is part of the schizophrenia. They have disorganized thoughts, disorganized speech. In the past, was your son moody. Sometimes get angry and then turn around and be fine or depressed. That is what bipolar is. Hearing voices is in my opinion a form of some type of schizophrenia and there are multiple types. Hopefully you can find the proper pdoc that can get a correct diagnosis. I know for myself, I document every day since his first break and I do a lot of research on everything and made a spreadsheet so that I know what the hell is going on. I have a list of questions to ask the pdoc the next time we go there. I will not let a doctor lead me, I will be a major part in every decision and debate when need be. The doctors should respect you if they see that you know a lot of things and are taking this seriously. I wish you the best and still recommend you to the site I referred you to. Take care of yourself and I will pray for you and your son.
