[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 49675, member: 1514"] CD is not a completely grim diagnoses if it is treated aggressively when diagnosed. What would be a tragedy is if someone treated a mental illness and the underlying conduct disorder was not treated when it could have been. I happen to think this is exactly what happened in my sons case. My son exhibited all the classic signs of CD. No where in there does it say they dont have a conscience though...That would be a psychopath or sociopath...there is a difference and I cant remember exactly which one it is. However, we treated him for the bipolar disorder and because the psychological treatments and therapies were different than they would have been for conduct disorder we lost the time that may have made the difference for him. There are multi-modal approaches for treatment of CD. [/QUOTE]
