The total number of stressful events in childhood is much higher in the adult diagnosis of bipolar disorder as compared to those without, especially where events stem from the harsh environment rather from the child's own behavior. These early experiences of adversity and conflict are very likely to make the subsequent developmental challenges in adolescence more difficult and make the diagnosis and treatment of the malady more difficult later (Hammersley et al., 2003, 543-544)..
Such realizations about the interrelatedness of psychoanalysis and drug treatment have brought about a new holistic approach to treating patients such as Steve. The systematic review and metaanalysis of randomized, controlled clinical trials have shown that other anticonvulsants worked as well as lithium carbonate. Since 2000, it was found that lithium effectiveness was less robust than was expected, so other results need to be investigated as well (Geddes et al., 2004, 217-218).
