I knew there was something wrong when I was about 5! Wish that I was kidding. When I was 5 I was in couselling for depresson and therapy for food restriction. I was held back from grade one for being emotionally ... not ready.

By 11, I had psychosis, which my parents passed off as the devils work, they were very religious. By 14 started having full blown mania that I could recognize, by 17 two sui attempts, and a dx of bipolar 1. However I refused to accept this even tho my life was in complete chaos 24/7. When I was 27, 10 years later I went back to a dr because I could no longer function at all and was dx again with bipolar 1.
