[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 174429, member: 1550"] I think you need to get a good evaluation, not just behavioral therapy. Behavioral therapy is not very effective with certain disorders and it sounds like something big is going on with your daughter. I'd see a neuropsychologist. I have a few questions that can help us help you. ODD almost never stands by itself. All the kids here have ODD behaviors--it's finding out the cause of the ODD that's a challenge. 1/Are there any psychiatric problems on either side of the family tree? Any substance abuse? Any neurological problems you know of, such as any form of autism/Aspergers? 2/How was her early development? Did she cuddle, make eye contact, walk and talk on time, and can she interact well with her peers? Does she "get" how to socialize? Is she sensitive to light, noise, foods, textures, etc. Welcome to the board. Others will come along. It is hard for anyone to tell you how to react to your child (including a psychologist) without knowing the REASON behind the behavior. A regular psychologist usually doesn't do the intensive testing of a neuropsychologist, and that can lead to diagnostic errors. [/QUOTE]
