I hate the term "psychotic" It just has such a negative connotation. So does anything with Schiz in it. My dx is Schizoaffective bipolar. It's great how people are so much more open about depression and anxiety nowadays but there's still a looooong way to go.
Anyway, in regard to the eating disorder, I'm doing pretty good. I have been cooking more and am able to keep away from restricting or bingeing. I see the nutritionist my psychiatrist referred me to next week. That should be interesting.

I don't like the term psychotic either. Society has made it seem evil when it's not at all. I have had psychotic symptoms, too, and lately because the antidepressent I am taking isn't working and my depression symptoms are out of wack.
Doesn't help it's the anniversary of my sister's death either. I was thinking a lot about her and crying, missing her so...Here is a pic of her:
