All --


Thanks for the sincere welcomes and all of the wonderful suggestions.  I am glad I have finally found a place where I can get advice and hopefully eventually I will be the one who can help some of the other newbies who join the site.


I have read alot of your stories and am flabbergasted at how common ODD and ADHD seem to be.  I grew up in small town Alberta, Canada and no one ever talked of ADD, ADHD, ODD or any of the psychiatric inflictions that I have read about over the last few months on the internet and now on this site.


My difficult child was diagnosed late last year after my frantic desire not to admit anything was wrong with my difficult child came to a halting end, so I am still very new at this.


Today started off really bad (yelling obscenities at me and the babysitter) and once my difficult child had taken his medication, miraculously improved (it was 180 degrees today).  This is normally not the case - but I am glad that I got one day of recluse.
