Summary
Mood disorders, including bipolar disorder (BD) and major depressive disorder (MDD), are serious and often-recurring psychiatric conditions that commonly first manifest during childhood or adolescence (1, 2). Youth with mood disorders are four times more likely to attempt suicide (32% vs. 8% in the general population) (3), are at elevated risk for developing co-occurring psychiatric disorders (4), and frequently experience family maladjustment and exposure to significant early-life stress (5, 6).
