The DSM requires either an incarceration or incident with police or hospitalization due to bad behaviour as part of assessing a diagnosis (unless the patient is persistent in getting the proper assessment )Lithium is the only medication that can improve the condition and not just treat symptoms. Lithium is available in many forms, patients often receive forms their body specifically their digestive system can't tolerate. As a result health care professionals are then able to prescribe new and expensive drugs that may help or may harm but may also very likely become ineffective conveniently after they turn generic.
