bipolar 2 episodes of mania and depression.

Bipolar 1-predominantly mania for at least one week
Bipolar 2-Hypomania alternating with major depression Rapid cycling Bipolar-At least four episodes of mania or major depression or both in a year

actually we need to learn the difference between..
**bereavement and adjustment disorder** so adjustment d isorder..identifiable social stressor but response is way out of proportion to the stressor! ocuurs within 3 mths lasts not more than 6 mths Bereavement...identifiable stressor, respose is consistent with the stressor/loss of loved one, lasts less than 1 year. ========================================================== ** PTSD and acute stress disorder (ASD) ** PTSD & ASD : dentifiable trauma in both (flashback, avoidance, autonomic arousal) PTSD greater than 1 month ASD lessthan one month. ========================================================== you are welcome to improve or correct... |
