Confused

I'm not sure what to write today. My diagnosis was changed a few hours ago. My doctor changed my diagnosis from Bipolar Disorder Type II to Schizoaffective Disorder Bipolar Type.

I'm not sure how to feel about this. It's just a name. It doesn't affect my treatment, since what we are doing is working for me. It's just a name for my symptoms. Right?

So I am trying not to act like anything is different. I am trying to act like this changes nothing. But I feel like it does.

This diagnosis seems somehow more severe, less manageable. It makes me feel like my struggles will be more difficult.

I'm confused and frustrated right now. I am trying to process all of this.

Sorry for such a short post. And sorry that I've been so irregular with my posts. To my regular readers, I will try to get my thoughts together and write more tomorrow or Friday.

I'm feeling a little overwhelmed still. I know I shouldn't be so confused and frustrated over a name, but I am.
