Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for writing to us,

Yes it is possible that subtle signs of bipolarity be present in a person with depressive disorder. There is nothing to get frustrated about it, there are treatment options available for this problem just like there is medication for depressive disorder. Kindly visit a psychiatrist at the earliest.

Hope this helps,
Dr A Rao
