Only if the mania persists beyond the point of drug discontinuation.

Perhaps you can describe in detail what you are experiencing that leads you to conclude that you are manic?

Any family history?

DSM V code for bipolar I: 296.53 with antidepressant-induced mania as a qualifer.

I don't recall what the code is for bipolar II.
