The Infinite Mind/LCMedia Online Store : CDs/Transcripts of award-winning public radio show : The Bipolar Child

As many as a third of the children diagnosed with ADD - Attention Deficit Disorder - are tragically misdiagnosed. Their tantrums, fidgetiness, self-abuse and inability to pay attention are signs of a major mental illness - bipolar disorder, or manic depression. Worse yet, the standard treatments for ADD - stimulants like Ritalin and anti-depressants like Prozac - can provoke violence, psychosis and even suicidal mania in bipolar children. Guests in this special program include Janice and Dr. Demitri Papolos, best-selling authors of a new and ground-breaking book on bipolar children, and Martha Hellander, director of the Child and Adolescent Bipolar Foundation. The Infinite Mind's host, Dr. Fred Goodwin, one of the world's leading authorities on bipolar disorder, leads the discussion.
