[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 83799, member: 2423"] Welcome! Keep the appointment in November with the child psychiatrist, if even for a second opinion. It's better for an adolescent to see a child psychiatrist than an adult psychiatrist. Think of ODD as a symptom rather than a diagnosis unto itself. Either depression or bipolar disorder could be the underlying cause behind ODD behaviors. My son definitely presents this way. You should also be aware that between 30 and 50 percent of children who present with depression actually go on to have bipolar disorder. My kids' primary symptoms are anxiety and depression, and they have more than garden-variety depression. Good luck. Let us know how the appointment goes today [/QUOTE]
