I believe I was always bipolar but back in the day when I was 16 they didnt know kids could be bipolar so I was just looked at as a troubled kid. I know my mom feels bad that they didnt know about bipolar in kids. I was hospitalized when I was a teen and my mom didnt know what was wrong with me, I wasnt officially diagnosed until mu 20's. My mom still feels regret that they didnt give me a diagnosis when I was a teen because then it was just kids being troubled. She realizes now that It was a mental illness but they didnt know that kids could be bipolar. It got worse as I got older and when I hit my 20's it became apparent that it was more than just a teen thing, Once I started getting treated she realized that all this time I should have been treated but they didnt know what they didnt know back then.
