When I was younger, I had bipolar 2 symptoms that went unnoticed. Why? Because I was a kid and people just attributed those symptoms of bipolar disorder to other things. For instance, in kindergarten I received a diagnosis of a learning disability that counselors referred to as "Wandering Syndrome." I was an excellent student, kind to others but my overactive imagination and emotional way of thinking caused me to drift when teachers were speaking to me. It prevented me from thriving academically.

In this video, I share the symptoms of bipolar 2 disorder that have been present since childhood. These symptoms include extreme empathy, sensitivity and an imaginative way of thinking that subtly distanced me from reality.

Did you experience bipolar symptoms that went unnoticed at first? And what symptoms finally led others to be concerned about your mental health? Please share your thoughts in the comment section below or do a response video and send it into info@healthyplace.com. See you next week! Hannah
