[QUOTE="Bean, post: 377139, member: 8620"] From what I understand, ODD is not a diagnosis that can be treated by medications. IF there is underlying depression, anxiety, etc. that can be treated with medications and it might help with some of the behaviors you are seing. But ODD is more of a set of behavior/personality traits that needs to be modified with a behavioral approach. There's a lot of reading materials out there, even just simple stuff for dealing with oppositional kids. Do you have insurance? Who is "confirming the diagnosis" for you? Hopefully whomever that is will take the time to go through some options with you and give you some resources. Hang in there. :) [/QUOTE]
