[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 112158, member: 2423"] To add to what Oceans has said: "How common is it that a child diagnosed with one of the Pervasive Developmental Disorders is found to have a comorbid bipolar disorder? While there has been no formal study, Edwin H. Cook, MD, Professor of Psychiatry and Pediatrics at the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Chicago, feels that 'based on my experience, my best guess is that 10 percent of the children with autistic spectrum disorder have a bipolar comorbidity' . . . this may eventually turn out to be higher (more in the 35 percent range)" (The Bipolar Child, page 50). I do think it's something you may need to consider, Janna. [/QUOTE]
