[QUOTE="oceans, post: 40810, member: 2687"] I think he needs a very extensive evaluation. If he is on medications now, he must have a psychiatrist already? Sometimes kids are diangosed at at early age with ADD/ODD, and it turns out to be something else. As they grow, more syptoms become apparent. Often, if you can find out what else is wrong and they are treated with the correct medication then the ODD behavior improves, or goes away. My son was treated with Stimulants and antidepressants, and they never worked. He is now on different medications, and he is like a easy child now, and all the ODD behavior is totally gone. It is not an easy road. We changed psychiatrists several times, and he was an inpatient at 2 different hosptials... [/QUOTE]
