Welcome Trachaelg. You have taught me something new today. I have never heard of bipolar being brought on by a brain injury. I am sorry that had to happen to your family. It must be much differnent for you than it is for most bipolar families were the symptoms or diagnoses has been a lifelong struggle. I would try to be as honest with your 6 yr old as possible. I have bipolar and am more prone to crying jags than anything else. There are times that I get aggravated and irritable and scream as well. My 5 yr old always comes and checks on me when I am in a funk mood, whether crying or screaming. These youngsters are more understanding than we know. I explain to my daughter when I am crying and upset, why i am upset and that it is not her fault or anybody else's. I tell her that mommy's heart hurts. This is what I do and you may need to adjust my advice for your family because our situations are different. BE WELL AND MANY BLESSINGS! BE BLESSED!
