[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 575139, member: 11791"] Did somebody actually diagnosis those in one fell swoop? or is that an accumulation of dxes? Because... Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified is just atypical Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). And... everything else you describe - including sleep issues - CAN be part of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Can also be part of other things that can be co-morbid with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)... Either way, in my opinion, you can ditch the ODD diagnosis. You need to figure out how she thinks, why she thinks that way, and the appraoches that actually work (Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Aspie/Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified kids need to be parented very differently from "typical" kids... but one Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Aspie/Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified kid can be extremely different from another Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Aspie/Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified kid...) Sleep issue is something that I'd first treat as a medical issue. Ever had a sleep study done? Rule out every possible medical cause for sleep issues. And then... look at the combo of sleep issues and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified/Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Aspie... they may well be related. [/QUOTE]
