Abstract

It is well known that Bipolar Disorder is a condition which is often under diagnosed or misdiagnosed. We propose an inventory
of questions which will help assess the longitutinal history of the patient’s illness, and to evaluate the presence of mixed affective
states, rapid cycling, and comorbidities, all of which have an important bearing on prognosis.

Keywords

bipolar disorder; mixed affective states; rapid cycling; comorbidities
