bipolar disorder, a person's risk of developing the condition is higher.

-True or False: When getting a diagnosis for manic depression, a doctor or
health care provider should conduct a physical examination, an interview,

test or a brain scan, but these tests can help rule out other factors that may
contribute to mood problems, such as a stroke, brain tumor, or thyroid
