[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 128390, member: 1024"] Buckeye, Yes it does appear that you are probably dealing with multiple diagnoses. My " personal" opinion is that ODD/conduct disorder is symptomatic of another overlying illness. Once the overlying illness is corrected with medications, the odd/conduct disorder symtpoms usually lessen as well. Missy is on Abilify. Missy does a lot of the things you describe, which is the impulsiveness of her disorder. When she is hypomanic, it's much, much worse. The Abilify helps to control the hypomania. She is less hypomanic. We've tried to increase the dose, but she became extremely irritable. She has a wicked mood disorder to begin with. She is also on Trileptal for a seizure disorder, but it is also a medication for mood stabilization. You may need a combination of medicines. [/QUOTE]
