does caffeine mimic or exacerbate bipolar?

Posted by g_g_g_unit on February 4, 2012, at 21:32:32

Still totally confused about the status of my depression, but I've been noticing lately that caffeine (not on any meds at present) helps me focus but makes me way more labile, irritable, and quick to anger.
Is stimulant-induced irritability clinically meaningless?
