one or more episodes of mania or hypomania with a history of one or more major depressive
episodes
Use of antidepressants in the treatment of bipolar disease
may precipitate a manic episode or induce rapid-cycling, used cautiously and never as

or manic episode.
Bipolar I vs Bipolar II vs Cyclothymia
Mood-related symptoms in BP may be characterized as having either too little positive affect
or too much negative affect
MDD can be mapped to specific malfunctioning brain circuits:
Prefrontal Cortex (PFC)
PFC & Amygdala
Striatum
Nucleus Accumbens
Hypothalamus
Prefrontal Cortex (PFC)
Concentration
, Mental fatigue
Mood
PFC & Amygdala
Guilt, suicidality, worthlessness
Striatum
Physical fatigue
Nucleus Accumbens
Pleasure interests
Hypothalamus
Sleep, appetite
MOA: SSRI, SNRI, NDRI
Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) inhibit 5-HT reuptake
Serotonin Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs)
inhibit 5-HT reuptake
inhibit NE reuptake (increase energy, focus)
increase DA in prefrontal cortex (increase cognition)
Norepinephrine Dopamine Reuptake Inhibitors (NDRI)
inhibit DA reuptake (increase alertness, motivation)
inhibit NE reuptake (increase energy)
Adverse Effects: SSRI, SNRI, NDRI
Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs): diarrhea, headache, weight gain, sexual side
effects
Serotonin Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs): elevated blood pressure, anxiety,
insomnia,
constipation
Norepinephrine Dopamine Reuptake Inhibitors (NDRI): agitation headache dry mouth
constipation weight loss
