[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 125227, member: 1550"] "Brats" don't try to commit suicide. The most common disorder that causes people to commit suidice is bipolar disorder. Often ADHD/ODD is really bipolar. If he is on stimulants or antidepressants and actually has a mood disorder THIS can cause suicidal ideation. I'd want another evaluation, especially if mood disorders run on the family tree. The suicide rate for ADHD is low. ODD is kind of a "catch all" for defiant behavior. If stims/ADHD medications aren't helping your child, I'd want to look beyond that--see a neuropsychologist or a real Psychiatrist (with the MD). I wish you good luck. [/QUOTE]
