For me, the depression started when I was a child and just got worse as I got older. It started with major depressive disorder when I was 18 and failed a suicide attempt. The bipolar started showing up when I was pregnant at 20 and since then I've been noticing my cycles happening faster and faster. I finally sucked it up and went for an evaluation last week. Right now it's BP2, GAD, and PTSD. I definitely exhibit signs of social anxiety and OCD too though.
