Does it mean you have bipolar if after taking an

SSRI alone for depression, you go into what could be determined to be mania?
My 15 year old nephew got increasingly worse after a family doc doubled his dose of an SSRI (not sure which one).
They think his problems might be that he might be bipolar.
Thanks!
