My bipolar symptoms seem to be all over the map. Sometimes down, other times up, anxiety on occasion, murderous lava flows of rage, sometimes I seem to be a bit ADD. When I get get to the ADD phase I think I'm just overwhelmed and can't handle one more thimble full of thoughts, other people's input or lack of understanding. It gets so bad that I reach the point where I think "I have have to hear 1 more bit of trivia out of your mouth I'm gonna hurt you!" This happens a lot with my husband because he is a Fox News junkie, and just loves to brighten my day by informing me of the latest horrible thing that happened in the world. (I deliberately avoid the news.)
Comorbid/dual/triple diagnosis can exist, true. Personally I try not to get caught up in it. No matter what my diagnosis du jour is, they are going to throw the same meds at me anyway. The dosage may vary but it's all the same at the end of the day....(in my opinion)
