I was 21 and in a stormy relationship. We were doing things together which conflicted with my core beliefs. I didn't feel comfortable around her anymore. I wanted to join a church and find God in my life. Suddenly the first bipolar symptoms started in, lots of mania, then delusions (thankfully no hallucinations).

This first time around they diagnosed me with OCD, but later on I had another lapse and they diagnosed me with schizoaffective bipolar type.
