Worsening Health in Early Twenties

It’s hard to predict. There’s always a chance, my brother has had severe bipolar symptoms since early elementary years, but mine were mundane enough to blame on other conditions until I was 17. I know for some people there’s not a sign til their mid 20s or later. The important key thing is self-awareness, if you’re monitoring your condition and you know what to look for it’s often very different than being caught completely off guard with it and not knowing what’s happening. You’ve already got the knowledge you have bipolar, so you’ll likely be a lot more attuned to shifts in it, and that can help you address any worsening symptoms right away.
