🌪️ **Mood Swings or Misdiagnosis?**
Does your child flip from energetic to _irritated_ in seconds? You’re not imagining things—and you’re not alone.

👉 Many don’t realize that **irritability**, not just mania, can be a red flag for Pediatric Bipolar Disorder. It’s _not_ just a phase, teen angst, or ADHD. It could be something deeper—and it’s often missed.

💡 The truth? Some kids don’t get “high” in the typical way. Instead of euphoria, they show **explosive anger, agitation, or intense moodiness**—signs that are often brushed off or mislabeled.

💬 That’s why I created a simple **questionnaire** to help parents spot patterns and start meaningful conversations with their providers. It’s **not a diagnosis**, but a powerful first step.

🧠 As a child psychiatrist, I’ve seen how early understanding changes lives. Let’s replace confusion with clarity.

🌟 Creatine: Brain Fuel, Bone Builder & Mood Booster—for Everyone! 💪🧠 🌟

Parents, let’s bust the myth—creatine isn’t just for bodybuilders. It’s one of the most-researched, safest, and most underutilized wellness tools for kids, women, and families!

✅ Brain & Mood Boost: Enhances memory, focus & resilience—especially during stress or sleep deprivation.
✅ Bone Support: Helps preserve skeletal strength by inhibiting bone breakdown.
✅ Muscle Performance: Increases strength & recovery.
✅ Women: Improves mood, sleep, & energy—without needing high doses or bloating.
✅ Teens & Kids: Safe, with potential for better coordination, agility & development.
✅ Vegans/Vegetarians: Greater benefits due to lower natural creatine stores.

💤 5g/day improves sleep in women on training days.
🧠 Emerging support as an adjunct to depression treatment.
💓 Even early signs of benefit for heart and vascular health!

✨ Pro Tip
🔹 10g/day: Best for brain & bone support, long-term wellness.
🔹 20g/day: Use short-term during stress, jet lag, or big exams.
📈 A German study showed 10g nearly doubled brain creatine!

💚 At Carlos Barrios MD INC, we integrate science & soul—Empowering Young Minds and families through holistic psychiatry & metabolic care. From sleep to mood, we guide with clarity, not just pills.

Excited to share my journey with holistic and metabolic interventions for mental health on my YouTube channel! 🌿 With over 20 years of experience in child and adolescent psychiatry, I specialize in integrating metabolic and functional methodologies to promote medication independence whenever feasible.

In my presentation back in March at the Collaboration of Science Conference in Las Vegas, NV, I delved into the transformative power of these interventions and shared how they have positively impacted my personal journey, from battling cancer to discovering the benefits of doing away with ultraprocessed “foods”the ketogenic and carnivore diets for all. An ally in the quest for medication independence wherever feasable!🌟

The YouTube link to this insightful 15-minute video is now live in my bio. 🎥 Join me on this fun, educational, and motivational journey towards improved mental well-being! 💪 Let’s empower ourselves to embrace holistic health practices and transform our lives for the better. 💫
