Severe mental breakdowns

[Queen of Bananas]

Do you include those who lost it completely as soon as Tobi turned out to be Obito or the ones who went bananas after pairing were finalized? Then list is long and some never recovered since.

The average age of onset is 18 in men and 25 in women.

 

[Callypigia]

I have had paranoia, I know that after seeing a Dr Phil episode where he explained it, and it fits perfectly.

All of that increased energy etc fits as well, don't know about insomnia but defenitely irritability and impuslive behavior.

It's gotten a little better though.

With manic phases most people are up for days and days (not including drug use). With hypomanic features one may not experience that.

Paranoid schzophrenia is common with teenagers, I believe.

Not really. It's very rare in adolescence. Onset of schizophrenia is around 20 for men. I've seen people as late as 40s have a psychotic break;however. I've seen psychosis with adolescence when accompanied by severe PTSD, but that's totally different.
