ICD-11 Criteria for Cyclothymic Disorder (6A62)
Cyclothymic disorder is
characterised by a persistent instability of mood over a period of at least 2
years, involving numerous periods of hypomanic (e.g., euphoria, irritability,
or expansiveness, psychomotor activation) and depressive (e.g., feeling down,
diminished interest in activities, fatigue) symptoms that are present during
more of the time than not. The hypomanic symptomatology may or may not be
sufficiently severe or prolonged to meet the full definitional requirements of
a hypomanic episode (see Bipolar type II disorder), but there is no history of
manic or mixed episodes (see Bipolar type I disorder). The depressive
symptomatology has never been sufficiently severe or prolonged to meet the
diagnostic requirements for a depressive episode (see Bipolar type II
disorder). The symptoms result in significant distress or significant
impairment in personal, family, social, educational, occupational or other
important areas of functioning.
