Was anyone initially diagnosed ADHD as a kid but later diagnosed bipolar (or later diagnosed with both)? My son was diagnosed ADHD/ODD 3 years ago, but sometimes the severity of his symptoms just seem too much for just that. It seems like a lot of doctors aren't comfortable diagnosing bipolar in children. Sometimes I think he may be bipolar in addition to ADHD. He's currently taking risperdal in addition to his stimulant for ADHD. Just curious if any of you have any experience in this or with pediatric bipolar disorder?
