I have ADHD but was also recently “diagnosed” with possible Bipolar. They didn’t want to sayyyy I had Bipolar because they both can have very similar symptoms and none of my symptoms flagged anything severe enough to immediately jump to Bipolar. I get frequent mood swings and tend to go into mild depressive/mixed states, but only when super overwhelmed or stressed. It’s never randomly. I think they wanted to be safe with having Bipolar on their mind because of the mood swings and depression. But frequent mood swings are common with ADHD and also tend to have increased stress, anxiety, and association with depression. All of this is so confusing lol. What I do know, is I’m on Adderall for ADHD and low dose of Lamotrigine for mood and it’s helping. Anything specific I could look out for that might help distinguish the 2 and better discuss with my doctor?
