[QUOTE="keista, post: 452719, member: 11965"] Welcome to the board! No, you are not the only parent going through this.:notalone: You were very thorough, but I still have a few more questions. Who diagnosed him? I'm just guessing the pediatrician. While ODD is in the DSM most of us here do not belive it is really a diagnosis on it's own. If it is, it's REALLY rare. It's more of a set of behaviors that are a SYMPTOM of something else. in my opinion some of the behaviors you described can NOT be explained by either ADHD or ODD, so, in my opinion there is more to the story. What medication is he on? For how long? Was it ever changed or adjusted? Does he have an IEP for school? How does he perform in school? You WILL learn to smile and say, "Why, thank you":flirtysmile3: And go on your way. It takes practice, but will come in time. Welcome again [B]sharziey[/B]! You've found a great place for support, guidance and insights. AND the knowledge that you will never be alone in this journey again - we're right here with you! [/QUOTE]
