Different types of psychosocial stressors have long been recognized as potential precipitants of both unipolar and bipolar affective episodes and the causative agents in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). New preclinical data have revealed some of the neurobiological mechanisms that could convey the long - term behavioural and biochemical consequences of early stressors. Depending on the timing, quality, quantity, and degree of repetition, maternal deprivation stress in the neonatal rodent can be associated with lifelong anxiety - like behaviours, increases in stress hormones and peptides, and proneness to drug and alcohol administration, in association with acute changes in the rate of neurogenesis and apoptosis (preprogrammed cell death) and decrements in neurotrophic factors and signal transduction enzymes necessary for learning and memory. Patients with bipolar illness who have a history of early extreme adversity (physical or sexual abuse in childhood or adolescence), compared with those without, show an earlier onset of illness, faster cycling frequencies, increased suicidality, more Axis I and Axis II comorbidities (including alcohol and substance abuse), and more time ill in more than 2 years of prospective follow -up. These findings are subject to a variety of interpretations, but to the extent that the more severe course of bipolar illness characteristics are directly and causally related to these early stressful experiences, early recognition and treatment of high - risk children could be crucial in helping to prevent or ameliorate the long - term adverse consequences of these stressors.
