Body symptoms like aches and pains in various parts of body where the primary cause is the psychological conflicts that the person has. Most often the investigation tests done to check the body part reveals normal findings. This is however not malingering (consciously acting as if sick). Example: Mother-in-law has knee ache because she resents working at home all the time when the daughter-in-law avoids the same work and simply enjoys.

Is it possible for a 12 year to be bipolar?

My nephew was unofficially diagnosed with bipolar at 4 yrs old. The official diagnosis was ADHD and a probable anxiety disorder. He's 15 now and indeed he is bipolar, type 1. He's been hospitalized many times. I think it is controversial diagnosing 'labeling' children so young and I don't know how they differentiate the two. A huge problem is the medications given to control the disorders. My nephew and son (also type 1 bipolar) cannot take ADHD medications. It sends them into mania - window breaking, can't blink mania. For them this fact was helpful in diagnosis.
