[QUOTE="odd&adhd-family, post: 376776"] I feel like I'm reading my own story a bit while reading your post, as many of us here likely can relate to the daily battles with ODD in our children. My son also wants to know ALL the details of any Dr. appointment. and God forbid they throw us a surprise. The psychiatrist pricked his finger last year at the beginning of the appointment. and needless to say, the 30 minute screaming and crying fit that followed amazed and appalled the staff. They knew he had ODD already. NO SURPRISES! I don't know what they were thinking! After seeing my son's reaction last year the psychiatrist said they've never seen any child go into such a fit like him and they didn't know what to do with him. Apparently they didn't consider his ODD as an important part of his treatment, where they faltered. This year for his checkup I called and found out what to expect this time, and I've told them make that finger-prick part, which they're requiring, at the absolute end. I also suffer from anxiety, a long running family trait, so I imagine my son also feels this type of severe anxiety, too. [/QUOTE]
