Bipolar doesn't usually 'appear' until mid teens!. I think your brother is likely to have behavioural problems that have been learned!. He would benefit from counselling!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It may or may not be! Check the symptoms on Bipolar!.com!. Are your parents worried about his behavior!? How is he in school!? Does he have severe depression and mania!? There are so many symptoms to bipolar and he would have to meet a certain amount of the criteria to be diagnosed as bipolar!. Check out the website though!. Hope this helps!Www@Answer-Health@Com
