[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 383286, member: 3444"] Well, everything you've described sounds like he's "activated" and it's simply a matter of you deciding to what degree. Withdrawn would be more like a depressed state. He would be quiet, not wanting to interact with others, hanging out alone in his room doing something quiet or nothing at all, or curled up in bed crying or suicidal (that would be severe, I think). Sometimes if someone is having a full-blown bipolar episdoe they can be BOTH activated and withdrawn (think of someone who would be manic AND suicidal at the same time -- and likely bordering on psychotic). I'd go ahead and take notes the way you are most comfortable, and then after you write it down, see if you can apply what you've written to the chart. The main thing is to get your observations down as clearly as possible. [/QUOTE]
