Welcome back to The Y in Psychiatry <3
Season 2 kicks off with a bang—or should we say a hypomanic burst—as our crew reunites to unpack one of the most enigmatic diagnoses in mental health: Bipolar Disorder.
Join Dr. Amayo, Dr. Nguyen, Dr. Handratta, and freshly minted PGY-1 Edmund as they peel back the layers on:
- What bipolar disorder really is (spoiler: it’s not just mood swings)
- Why bipolar looks different in kids—and how we often get it wrong
- The fine line between ADHD and mania
- The dangers of mislabeling depression
- Manic vs. hypomanic: it’s all about duration and dysfunction
- Cyclothymia, mixed episodes, rapid cycling, and the misunderstood DMDD
We sprinkle in some laughs, myth-busting, and real clinical pearls that even the most seasoned psychiatrist will appreciate.
