[QUOTE="goldenguru, post: 97478, member: 1545"] Often the symptoms that look like ADHD are really symptoms of bipolar disorder. When my hubby is manic, he exhibits many ADHD characteristics. With that said - I would consult an adolescent psychiatrist if you can find one. One that is well versed in dual diagnoses. I agree with Suz and MWM. Get him stable on mood stabilizers then if ADHD symptoms persist - then begin to think about treating them. [/QUOTE]
