[QUOTE="Kimba, post: 76830, member: 4073"] Well I can relate my son is also 9 with ODD and possibly other problems that we will be evaluating at his appointment with a therapist. I dread the thought of medicines for him because he is a great student, intellectually brilliant and very imaginative which are his positive traits. I am borderline bipolar and remember when a doctor had me on Lithium the side effects were terrible and the anxiety medicine made me a zombie so that is not what I want for my son. I am only on Effexor 75mg right now and it is doing great with no side effects so I am thrilled. My son has tried all of the homepopathic remeidies for hsi behavior, he does have allergies nad asthma and take shots for his allergies but that is all right now. I am trying to stay on focus so that I remember that getting him on medicine can aide in the end result of a functioning child in school able to get along and relate to others without behavioral problems. So if medicine is available I am willing to try anything. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers and hope that the decision is one that you and your child will benifit from. Take Care, Kimba:) [/QUOTE]
