bipolar depressive disorder, severe, recurrent - do I use 29653 or 29633

Thank you:confused:
 
Use 296.53

Simply, 296.3x is straight depression and 296.5x is bipolar w/ depression

296.33 Major depressive affective disorder recurrent episode severe degree without psychotic behavior

296.53 Bipolar i disorder, most recent episode (or current) depressed severe degree without psychotic behavior
