Thanks for your feedback, and you are correct the SSRIs can have the damaging effect on patients with all forms of bipolar. I made an edit to reflect that.
Your point that many people who seek treatment for depression actually have bipolar, which their is discovered as a result of an SSRI induced mania, is why I think it is extremely dangerous for general practitioners to prescribe anti-depressants.
It's always safest to see a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner.
