[QUOTE="Josie, post: 417364, member: 1792"] My daughter was textbook ODD until she was 10, but only at home. Due to her sister's health problems, we discovered that she had gluten and casein intolerance. When we put her on the girlfriend/CF diet, she is a regular kid. Even a pleasure to be around, when she stays on her diet. I believe that food allergy was the underlying cause of her ODD. When she is on her diet, she doesn't need to learn to control her frustration because she is not easily frustrated. It is the silver bullet for her. No therapy or medications needed. Before we did the diet, she was taking Lexapro and we were going to add Seroquel to control the violence. I also found out that I was gluten intolerant and since being on the girlfriend diet, I am way more relaxed, even when A is off her diet and displaying that ODD behaviour. For the most part, I don't get caught up in it and can recognize it as irrational behaviour. Thankfully, she usually gets herself back on her diet quickly enough and we don't have to deal with it too long. I never would have believed this could work as well as it does, until we tried it.
