Bipolar Disorder: BD: Patients with bd are at higher risk (50% lifetime incidence) for many anxiety subtypes, including generalized anxiety disorder, simple phobia, social phobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, ptsd, & panic disorder. Adhd very commonly comorbid with bd but also often misdiagnosed or confused with bd. Evaluation & management by skilled clinician is essential for best function.
