Yes, people with a mild degree or level of bipolar can still be bipolar with no obvious manic like behaviours, and it can even be misdiagnosed as just depression sometimes. Bipolar is not a black and white thing, you'd be surprised of all the variations and intensities.
Signs of Bipolar: How to Tell If Someone Is Manic
To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the ten child codes of F31 that describes the diagnosis 'bipolar disorder' in more detail. Bipolar disorder, also known as bipolar affective disorder or manic depression, is a mental disorder characterized by periods of elevated mood and periods of depression.
Major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder are two separate conditions — you can't be diagnosed with both at the same time. But that's because diagnostic criteria for bipolar disorder II includes MDD.

BD can be further subdivided into bipolar disorder I (BD I) and bipolar disorder II (BD II). The quintessential feature of BD I is the manifestation of at least one manic episode--although depressive episodes are common, only one manic episode in a lifetime is enough to label one with BD I.
In the DSM-5, for bipolar I disorder, current or most recent manic episode, mild, is coded as 296.41 (F31. 11), moderate 296.42 (F31. 12) and severe 296.43 (F31. 13), with psychotic features 296.44 (F31.

ICD-10 code F31.1 in this case will be used to specify a bipolar disorder that is mild without any psychotic features.
Bipolar 2 is similar to bipolar 1 characterized with mood swings cycling between high and low over time, the only difference in this case is that the mood swings never reach full on mania. F31.8 ICD-10 code will thus be used to specify the Bipolar II disorder. Depression associated with psychotic symptoms will be specified by F32.3 while F06.32 will be used to specify any mood disorder caused by known psychological conditions with major depressive like episodes.
Depressed mood, loss of interest and enjoyment, and increased fatiguability are usually regarded as the most typical symptoms. of depression, and at least two of these, plus at least two of the other. symptoms described above should usually be present for a definite diagnosis.

The clinical picture is that of a more severe form#N#of mania as described above.

In severe cases, grandiose or religious delusions of identity#N#or role may be prominent, and flight of ideas and pressure of speech may#N#result in the individual becoming incomprehensible.

Hypomania is a lesser degree of mania, in which abnormalities#N#of mood and behaviour are too persistent and marked to be included under#N#cyclothymia but are not accompanied by hallucinations or delusions.

tend to get shorter as time goes on and depressions to become commoner. and longer lasting after middle age. Although the original concept of “manic-depressive. psychosis” also included patients who suffered only from depression, the. term “manic-depressive disorder or psychosis” is now used mainly as a synonym.
Bipolar disorder, also known as bipolar affective disorder or manic depression, is a mental disorder characterized by periods of elevated mood and periods of depression. The elevated mood is significant and is known as mania or hypomania depending on the severity or whether there is psychosis.
Type-1 Excludes mean the conditions excluded are mutually exclusive and should never be coded together. Excludes 1 means "do not code here."

If you’ve given your patient a bipolar disorder diagnosis, it may be helpful to provide them with additional resources for use outside your sessions. Becoming more familiar with their condition may help them be more open with their support systems and adhere to medication and treatment recommendations.
Since the DSM-5 was published in 2013, updates have been made to the codes for bipolar I and bipolar II disorders. After a long period of revisions and adaptation, the ICD-10 coding system replaced the ICD-9 code set on October 1, 2015.
There's actually different types of bipolar disorder; for example, bipolar I is when the person experiences severe mania to the extent they may require hospitalization. Bipolar II is when a person has the manic episodes, but not as extreme as with bipolar I.
There are no extreme highs as with bipolar. It would be very, very rare for a person to have both disorders because of this fact. If a person diagnosed with depression experiences a manic episode, that'd be where the shift to a bipolar diagnosis would occur.
I was told that depression and bipolar cannot be coded together because depression is part of bipolar. I am a nurse and know that these 2 disorders are different even though a bipolar patient can have depression.
Stating that "depression is a part of bipolar" is true, but it probably should have been worded as "depression (or depressive) episodes are a part of bipolar.". With bipolar disorder, a patient has episodes of mania or manic behavior as well as depressive episodes.
