can there be changes and treatment beyond the typical treatment for schizo-affective disorder. The distortion when I look at peoples faces and not being to really read what a person is feeling in its entirity I was exploring the other side of schizophrenia the catatonia side which is more of what I have to deal with and yet when I describe it in a non=medical term no one seems to know what I'm talking about especially doctors and mental health proffessionals. I've had this illness now going on 16 years diagnosed almost 9 years. I have fallen through the cracks constantly because of my insurence. I am at the point of c omplete frustration. yea the hospital emergency room turned me away when i was having a pshycotic break. Because i wasnt homicidal or suicidal they wouldn't help me oh but they made sure to charge me for my visit.
