unless you mean after an atack of mania..what is the risk of the patient getting a depressive relapse.?...

Ok i think i understand what ur saying..I didn't know that actually....
But u know what
since there is a 10 % chance that a patient cld have mania without depression......DSM IV shld have kept Mania as it used to be....a separate disorder with Bipolar I being another diagnosis...if u know what i mean...
But who wld tell the guys who constructed DSM IV to do this and that.... 
Well thanx for keeping us enlightened :wink:
