[QUOTE="busywend, post: 369065, member: 391"] Welcome Batman's Mom! I am glad you found us. Be glad for the ODD diagnosis as it means the doctor listened to your description and certainly figured out the behavior he has is ODD behavior. Most times, not all, that ODD behavior is due to some other issue. ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar, Autism, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), etc. These are things that make our kids different than others and they know it. And life is just plain harder for them. So, they act out more. Makes sense to me, they are frustrated that they can not be like others around them. I am glad you are getting the referral. My suggestion is to not make many changes until you see the doctor. Also, keep a log of everything. It is hard to do. Log all foods, behaviors, bathroom times, etc. Everything. You never know when a connection can be made. Sometimes there is a food allergy causing the behavior. You just never know. [/QUOTE]
