Hi Rob:

I can address some of point #2, unfortunately I don't have the exact answer to 
your question.

I am positive that ADHD is comorbid with out anxiety-related disorders such as 
OCD and Tourette's Syndrome. I believe the connection relates to a genetic 
predisposition towards neurotransmitter control of inhibition of behavior. 

As for a relation to bipolar I would only be able to speculate but given my 
knowledge of neurotransmitters--which is decided not great, but not nil either, 
I would be surprised. Then again, maybe there are components that are not 
biologically based with these disorders.
