Is Dysthymic Disorder considered Unipolar Diorder?
Unipolar Disorder is just the two Mood Disorders: MDD and dysthymic disorder, correct?
"Unipolar depression" = MDD, but I think unipolar disorder includes dysthymic disorder as well.
No real clear info I can find on this from the official sources???

Interesting.....
When I was in a psych unit for a week I was diagnosed with MDD and dysthymia separately.
Never heard of unipolar depression.

Your genuine doubt can only be cleared by an authorized medical practitioner or a professionally qualified doctor.
