Stranger Things" star David Harbour has opened up about his battle with bipolar disorder, saying that he was once committed to an asylum. The actor said that his battle with mental illness on WTF podcast, explaining he was diagnosed bipolar when he was 25, reports aceshowbiz.com. Harbour said: "Here's the interesting thing, which I have actually never truly spoken about publicly. I actually was in this Catholicism thing... and I was sober for, like, a year and a half... and I actually did have a manic episode and I was diagnosed as bipolar."

"I really had a bit of a break where I thought I was in connection to some sort of God that I wasn't really in connection to. It was like I had all the answers suddenly," he added. His parents subsequently committed him and he said that the experience was not what he thought it was going to be.
