Core Tip |
Despite its formal DSM delineation, alternative pediatric bipolar disorder (BD) definitions have been debated for decades. Some research suggests that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) poses a risk for BD and that pediatric BD presents differently as non-episodic, greater chronicity, and more frequent irritability. In our study, we found the ADHD status is not a risk factor for developing BD over 14 years of follow-ups. When we controlled for overlapping ADHD/BD, nonspecific symptoms showed decreasing rates of BD in ADHD-diagnosed children. Clinicians are encouraged to pay greater attention to specific symptoms of mania in order to establish an accurate BD diagnosis. Furthermore, irritability (DSM criteria A2), was a nonspecific symptom of mania and linked to common psychopathologies in the early development of these children. |
