[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 711327, member: 15832"] Difficult child was also misdiagnosed as bipolar 2 as a young adult for symptoms of irritability and treatment resistance. On hindsight, the "mood swings" were from drug abuse. During another hospitalization Difficult Child had a neuropsychologist exam which showed major depression, nonverbal learning disorder, and personality disorder, which we were aware of. No bipolar disorder. I really hate to say trendy, and I know this doesn't apply to young children. However I do remember reading a book about bipolar disorder which was promoting the theory that treatment resistance and irritability could be bipolar 2. Whether that was true or not I don't know. All I know is this seemed to be a new theory and the book was current at the time, and that my son was misdiagnosed. [/QUOTE]
