According to the APA (DSM-5, 2013), bipolar disorder involves both depressive and manic (and/or hypomanic) symptoms; as such, it is neither precisely a depressive disorder nor an anxiety disorder (the DSM classifies it under Bipolar and Related Disorders). However, extrapolating from the research literature on depression and anxiety, what would be the most reasonable inference to draw about a relationship between bipolar disorders and stress?
A) There is likely no relationship since bipolar disorder is different from depressive or anxiety disorders.
B) There is likely some relationship since at least one bipolar component, depression, is related to stress.
C) There is likely no relationship since no research has connected manic/hypomanic states with stress.
D) There is likely some relationship since manic and hypomanic states are equivalent with anxiety states.
