What is this "bipolar is a spectrum disorder"?
Thanks.
Bipolar Spectrum: Categories of Bipolar Disorder

The first paragraph should sum it up. That's the only thing I could find on spectrum disorder that didn't involve autism.

Basically the long and short of it is that bipolar can mix with other disorders really easily. There are a lot of people who have bipolar and borderline or similar combinations.

At least that's what I get from it. Also:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrum_disorder

That's a little too over my head though.
Thanks for this!
