Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
I think, in your case diagnosis would be schizoaffective disorder. In that case you need combination of mood stabilizer like sodium valproate or lithium and antipsychotic in case of manic episode or antidepressant in case of depressive episode. Rest you can consult your psychiatrist. In case you need my help, you can consult me.
