I too am 26 years old and have been cured of my endometriosis but can relate to what you are talking about. When I was in my early twenties I was put on Lupron for my endometriosis and I to am Bipolar. I did not experience any side effects at all and I didn't become mentally unstable. So my suggestion is not to worry the doctors know what they are doing. Everything is going to be alright so keep your head up. I hope that I have helped and good luck.
