Great video but have 2 points to make 1. You need 3 or more symptoms of DIGFAST to make a diagnosis of mania or hypomania. You need 4 only if the mood is irritable (From DSM 5) 2. To make a diagnosis of bipolar 2, criteria for past or current MDD must be meet( hypomania plus MDD)

After all these years thinking I had ADHD I finally understand I was masking my bipolar disorder. This makes so much sense now, I want to go to Psychology and Neuroscience college to understand better all those different ways to see the world based on each disorder, thank you so much for this

Self diagnosing yourself based on a video is stupid. Go see a doctor, seriously!

@Jamie_Wilson 8 ай бұрын

Sorry to tell you... But you can have BOTH at the same time you know. Its just more likely they'll put it all under the most prevailing condition, which will always be ADHD because that is life-long and starts in childhood. Kids don't get bipolar a diagnosis, but they will get an ADHD diagnosis. Ultimately it matters not, look into both and treat yourself as if you have both. Because like I say you can have bipolar and also have the signs of ADHD, it's not a one thing or the other diagnosis, you don't get a single label in medicine.

I hope you don’t diagnose yourself. Even if you think you have a mental illness you have to go to a psychiatrist and ask their opinion. A doctor is the only person who can give you a diagnosis. Please don’t just diagnose yourself because you saw a video on it.

@skirmisher10 2 ай бұрын

don't self diagnose yourself if you aren't a professional based on one video. you'll self identify with something you might not have and then let it dictate your life/identity.

Just a clarifying point for anyone watching, bipolar 2 is not hypomania +/- a depressive episode, it is at least one hypomanic episode AND at least one major depressive episode.

@bloxxerhunt1566 2 жыл бұрын

from what I see watching the other videos, the biggest difference is that "normal" disorders are ego-dystonic. the sufferer is frequently aware of what is "wrong" with them (and by wrong I mean deviating from their norm), and dislikes and wants to change their situation just on their own. personality disorders on the other hand are ego-syntonic, meaning the patient will very frequently not know that there's something different with them at all, and might not dislike the disorder itself (since they don't even think they have any) but rather the side effects and distress this disorder causes in their personal life, like loss of friends and jobs.

Thanks so much for this --- are you using the DSM 5? It says 3 symptoms, not 4 for the diagnosis....(?)

@JohnSmith-ys4nl 2 жыл бұрын

You are correct. DSM5 says 3 symptoms for euphoric mania. But you need 4 symptoms for "irritable" mania. And then there's mixed episodes which the clinician also must be able to spot.

Doesn't Gabapentin help with mood stabilization? The reason I ask is because I remember someone being prescribed that as one and since I've been on it, my moods are much more stabile. I also have to have ssri's. I've been on Prozac for a long time. I don't do antipsychotics anymore. They caused me to gain massive amounts of weight. There are genetic tests available that can tell you who will or will not gain a lot of weight.

Gabapentin is known to cause weight gain as well. Gaba works with the pleasure centers in your brain probably why it makes you feel better or more stable

So how does one discern whether they are just in a good mood or hypomanic? The hardest thing for me is that I know I’m educated, I’m extremely outgoing, and I love talking to other people. That’s a part of who I am and have been since I was a child. I know I’m very gifted, but not a God or a savior of any kind. I’m grateful I have any intelligence or gifts. But the hardest thing is I can’t really tell when I am hypomanic or just in a good mood. Because my regular personality even since 2nd, 3rd, or even 7th grade is talking to others and thinking a lot. But I know there is something wrong now. Any tips on my situation??? Also I love writing, and I think when I’m manic or depressed for some reason I write these really profound poems or papers. And I don’t mean like writing nonsense, like it actually makes sense. So is that all going to go away when I get medicated ?

Hey I think you’re fine as long as you’re not hurting yourself or others. Looks like you’re just a hyperactive person with enthusiasm that’s all. You don’t have a mood disorder. We all feel depressed or hypomanic every now and then.

@DirtyMedicine 4 жыл бұрын

yes per the DSM V, but on your exams it will be given to you as a hypomanic episode only and you'll infer that its bipolar 2 based on that alone if its not obviously a cyclothymia type presentation. keep it simple
