[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 548314, member: 11791"] Personal opinion of ODD diagnosis is... it doesn't tell you much other than that there is something wrong. Most of the time, that "something" is something else... not ODD. Depression. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Aspergers. Auditory Processing Disorders (APD). LDs. All sorts of combinations. Sounds like maybe there is more at work, but you don't know what that is. been there done that - we went through 10 years of figuring it out. ADHD medications... just a Canadian perspective, but the psychiatrists here do not use Straterra alone. It is used to provide a "baseline" dose that is effective 24/7. And then they use a stimulant for a day-time boost. Given that stims worked for your son but rebound-effect was a huge problem... the combination might work. [/QUOTE]
