[QUOTE="keista, post: 528978, member: 11965"] Yes. Sh'es only 3 so you might get some run-around even from a doctor. You need to be firm and adamant. Luckily you do have an older child so you cna very clearly state that DS1 did NOT have such issues and you are quite certain something is "wrong" AND there is diagnosed mental illness on the family tree (your bipolar cousin) And about ODD. doctors seem to like it as a diagnosis. I wouldn't waste too much time arguing with them if they give it. Just keep looking. I just advised another poster to keep looking for a diagnosis until it "feels right" A diagnosis doesn't have to be just one thing. It could be many things and until it all seems to make sense to you, it's worth it to keep looking. [/QUOTE]
