We hop aboard the Bipolar Express to unpack one of the messiest puzzles in psych: why diagnosing Bipolar Disorder sometimes feels like trying to solve a Rubik’s cube — when there could also be ADHD, anxiety, personality disorders, substance use, sleep-issues, or even childhood trauma riding shotgun. We'll walk you through the common—and often overlapping—comorbidities, explore how neurobiology and development muddy the waters, and talk real-world strategies for disentangling symptoms and giving clear, safe, and effective care.
