Zinco, I read the same exact thing. I believe that the DSM V now pinpoints that if an antidepressant induces hypomania that it is classified as on the bipolar spectrum.......I really don't agree with this but I see my pdoc in the am and I bet he diagnoses me with bipolar again! I am so confused with psychiatry.
Older research in this link suggesting putting AD induced mania as bipolar dx in DSM V:

Newer research stating DSM V addition:
