dc.description.abstractI address early onset Bipolar Mood Disorder, exploring the ways in which the disorder manifests in the lives of children. Complications in current and past literature are clarified, and the dearth of substantive research into the area is noted. I clarify associated risk factors specific to paediatric bipolar disorder. A treatment procedure informed by cognitive-behavioural, narrative and family systems theories is proffered, and is considered in relation to the development of a pharmacological intervention. I highlight shortcomings in psychiatric interventions, and provide a framework for treatment which that takes into account the complex variety of needs which bipolar children present.
