[QUOTE="Loony Smurf, post: 406470, member: 1695"] It could be that he needs a medication dose adjustment or a different medicine. It could also be that ADHD/ODD isnt the right diagnosis. The tactile sensitivities are very common in Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) for instance...the rages can be seen in all sorts of disorders such as mood disorders etc. The not doing his work despite being smart enough could be from a learning disability. There's sooo many things that could be a factor..dont just settle for whatever the psychiatric says just cause it's Something. It might not be the Right something. I'd say that if he cant follow the therapy and structure even with the medications, perhaps that's because he isnt really medically stable enough for him to physically be Able to control himself for some reason.
