I would've been angry if I wasn't told my dx. Knowing the diagnosis has helped in the way that I have researched it inside out and know signs to watch out for when things are going wrong. If I hadn't learnt about the episodes and symptoms involved then experiencing them would be scary as I wouldn't know what's going wrong.
It didn't hurt me to know, no. Even if I tried to carry on with things pretending I wasn't schizoaffective bipolar type wouldn't mean I wasn't so I'm glad I know.
