I'm not so sure that I'd agree with the standpoint of the bipolar theory of treatment resistance.
Bipolar meds did something, but never helped with certain clusters of symptoms like anhedonia, apathy etc.
I think the assertion that we are all bipolar is an attempt to turn the train on some of the high occurances of AD poop-out etc.
But mood stablalizers can poop out. I had a strong AD effect from lithium, but it never lasted longer than 1 month.
