Question:
I have a 2 yr old little girl and I think she might
have a anger problem. I know it sounds weird for a
two yr old to have anger issues but her father has
anger problems and he's violent now. My daughter is
very defiant and she argues with other children at
her day care and she beats them up, scratches their
face, punches them, & slaps them. She won't eat.
She kicks and screams when I try to put her to bed
at night. Now she's only been doing this for about
6 months but she wasn't doing any of this stuff
before. I'm really worried about her and the other
children.
My question for you is do you this she has BPD or do
you think she's just being "two"? If you think she
does have BPD what should I do for a two yr old with
that?
Dr. Heller's Answer:
The BPD starts at puberty. Your daughter likely has
childhood onset bipolar disorder, although just a
severe depression is possible.
There's a terrific book on the subject: "The Bipolar
Child" by Dr. Papolos
The questionnaire I use for my patients regarding
the possibility of childhood onset bipolar can be
found at:
