The objective of this study was to assess the strengths and limitations of a mixed bipolar depression definition made more inclusive than that of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fifth Edition (DSM-5) by counting not only ‘non-overlapping’ mood elevation symptoms (NOMES) as in DSM-5, but also ‘overlapping’ mood elevation symptoms (OMES, psychomotor agitation, distractibility, and irritability).
