Mania in Obsessive- Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can occur either as an independent comorbidity or as a result of an antidepressant-induced switch. We report the case of a 38-year-old male with a 3 year diagnosis of OCD treated with antidepressants, admitted due to a manic episode, and describe diagnostic and treatment challenges of this comorbidity.engPerturbação bipolarPerturbações psicóticasAnsiedadeBipolar disorderAnxietyjournal article
