Makes sense that any 2 would be worse than 1.

In my experience, it has made it harder to diagnose both because it's harder to separate which condition is causing which symptoms. Fortunately it's basically a matter of taking some pills, so that's not too hard. I could see it being extra-frustrating, because if bipolar symptoms flare up that can make the ADHD a lot worse. And it could make you extra impulsive, which could lead to bad consequences in general.
