Annette's message did not give enough information to rule out Medical
Students' Disease (MSD). I always warn students about this in my Abnormal
Psychology syllabus. Students can believe the symptoms that they learn are
related to their own experience, a kind of hypochondriasis. The relation
between ADHD and bipolar disorder symptoms could go either way if the
student is self-diagnosing. Annette did not say that the student claimed
to have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, only that there was a claim
that he/she had it. If not diagnosed by others, perhaps it is MSD.
