Q. I have been treated for Bipolar Disorder. I wish to know is there any connection between Depression & Bipolar Hi! I’m Devontae. I was initially treated for depression but now I have been treated for Bipolar Disorder. I wish to know is there any connection between Depression and Bipolar Disorder or the worst state of depression is Bipolar Disorder???
A. a bipolar disorder is a different diagnosis then depression. but in bipolar disorder there are episodes of depression and episodes of mania. so- if you had a depression episode, and it was your first one, there's a good possibility the psychiatrist diagnosed it only as a depression.
