[QUOTE="oceans, post: 19657, member: 2687"] What did you sign up for at Texas Children's hospital? Was it a multi evaluation? It sounds to me like that would be my next step. Often times kids who are diagnosed with ODD are actually Bipolar, or have some other diagnosis. Sometimes if the right medications or supports are put into place then the ODD behaviors will subside. For instance...my son has oppositional behaviors, but 2 of the psychiatrists who evaluated him felt that the ODD behavior was secondary to the Major Depressive Disorder which medications don't seem to help. I think there is something else going on with the diagnoses and he needs a different medication, but that is another story. They both feel that if we found a medication to help his mood, then the ODD behaviors would subside. [/QUOTE]
