If I could have it happen without those things, maybe it would have been much better for me.

But in high school & college, I had brains & artistic talent. I was depressed, shy, and end the end got an ED. But the bipolar didn't get going until I was 20 to 25. And I was misdiagnosed with depression & put on SSRIs for 10 years, which I am sure did not do me any favors.
I was misdiagnosed too as depressed from about 24 on. I was diagnosed about age 33. I had 3 kids in those years but maybe in there some hallucinations happened. Still given zoloft only. Misdiagnosed with ppd. Once I was catatonic and in bed and no help.
