[QUOTE="Vincent Wells, post: 400294"] @Tri-J - Our son has been through the whole gamut of stimulant and mood-stabilizing medications, several anti-psychotics, and none of them have worked well, if at all, and often caused worse problems. He's currently on Depakote, Geodon, Cogentin (hedging against side effects from the Geodon), and Propanolol (for frequent headaches). He also takes Imetrix for occasional migranes. We have long suspected that he was displaying symptoms that medication would never have any effect on, and the fact that none of the medications have had a positive effect, coupled with the steady degeneration of his behavior, is what leads us to believe that his ODD is progressing into CD, and heading for Antisocial Personality Disorder once he hits 18, especially if he carries out some of the behavior and plans he talks about now (experimenting with alcohol, running off with his present "girlfriend", trying to care for himself without prerequisite life skills).
