[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 466892, member: 11791"] The look in his eyes... of course I haven't seen it. But I do know that my difficult child went downright scary - and it was his eyes that really bothered me. A look that the school pics almost capture - not the intensity, but... that "something" that was off... And for us, it definitely was NOT conduct disorder. Nor Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). There is no label for it, the best way I can describe it is "induced psychosis". He was going insane in his brain - as a result of everything he had been put through in life. Now that he has the right dxes and the right help (and NONE of the dxes left on the table is a mental illness)... that look is GONE. And so are the scary behaviors that go with it. Which is why I'm wary of a CD diagnosis at this age. The history is such that... there could be a raft of other things happening, and the behavior and the eyes and everything else - which matches CD to a T - may in fact not be "genetic" but the result of other things... and may be possible to reverse. There is just no way to know. But you have to work with what you have for medical help... and if the CD diagnosis is getting you help that is actually working... then run with it. [/QUOTE]
