The link between bipolarity and substance use: A controlled clinic based study.

DISCUSSION: The results showed a potential association between substance dependence and bipolarity. Mood dysregulation appears to be the link between the two. The gradient of bipolarity detected by BSDS screener suggests a continuum model between substance use and bipolar disorder. However, this is a clinic based study and only male patients have been taken for study. PMID: 31731145 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
