I'm 48y.o, in the past 4 years I've gone from no mental health issues to being diagnose with everything from ADD, depression, anxiety, bipolar, schizophrenia, psychosis NOS, insomnia, delusional, after 1 panic attack. My husband and I have been having terrible problems during this time. I want to divorce him because of his extremely controlling behavior, but I have no money and 3 children. To the outside world he is the easy going fun person everyone wants to be around and I'm quiet and on the shy side. At home I can't go anywhere or doing anything without his permission first, and if I am allow to go somewhere I must be back by the time I've been given. My husband will call the doctors and report false situations that never happened, he also calls my family and friends behind my back with these false statements (1 family member came to me and told me, the doctors have also mention his calls). How do doctors make diagnoses? Can a diagnosis be made without input from others?
