overall your work looks good.

There is one punctuation corrections to make. I have put a line through the duplicate word for you.

You might want to add in more research about children and teens in this article it really doesn't talk to much about that age group having this disorder. This could add for another medical reference for your paper.

Your references look good and link well you may want to add a bit more references as five was the minimum but this should be easy with a few more sections to be added. Maybe think about adding some pictures also.

You also want to remember to take out the lead where you have typed Introductory Sentence, and Summary.

I would also suggest a few items in treatment and comorbidity.

You are doing a great job.

Introductory Sentence: Bipolar II is a disorder categorized by the DSM-5 under anxiety and mood disorders, potentially causing mass distress in a person's life if gone untreated.

Summary: Although different from Bipolar I disorder, Bipolar II shares some similar qualities, including a depressive episode and a form of a manic episode. Manic episodes are split in to two categories, being a full manic episode or a hypomanic episode. Bipolar II disorder is distinguished by a hypomanic episode, and either preceded or followed by a major depressive episode.
