[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 48146, member: 1550"] CD is sort of like ODD. It's kind of a "catch all" when a child's mental illness or neurological disorder has not been treated right and is so out of control that the doctors think the child has no conscience. That's pretty serious. in my opinion, it's also probably wrong--it's not even supposed to be dxd. before age 18 and is usually a co-morbid, again like ODD. I'd try to push for bipolar medications and talk them out of the antidepressant, however there is a serious withdrawal effect from all antidepressants. He will probably seem considerably worse before he finally stabilizes. Bipolar has a much better prognosis than conduct disorder. Conduct disorder is essentially sociopathetic, and, in my opinion, some professionals jump to this conclusion way too fast. [/QUOTE]
