A member asked:
Is it possible to take care of both add and bipolar?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Absolutely! it sounds like you'll need a psychiatrist and a good therapist to work with you. There is a lot of overlap between adhd and bipolar. Sometimes kids are diagnosed with adhd and eventually develop bipolar in adulthood. What you are describing is very common.
