I recorded it too...there isn't going to be one on adults that I know of. I wish they would have clarified that not everyone shows symptoms of bipolar as a child, that it sometimes shows later in life; and I wish they would have talked a little about the different types of bipolar and symptoms instead of just focusing on the extreme bipolar I symptoms. I'm afraid people who watched it will have a child who shows no symptoms until late teens or early adulthood and then when diagnosed, the parent says something like "well, I saw a show about bipolar and you don't have it because you weren't like that as a child" You know what I mean? But it was interesting to watch, and very sad to see such young children having to suffer through this
