[QUOTE="CCRidr2, post: 46728, member: 3714"] I agree with smallworld. ODD is rarely a standalone diagnosis. Our difficult child was diagnosed with ADHD/ODD at 6 yo, it is now looking more like Early Onset Bi-Polar (EOBP) now that he is a little older. A full evaluation at this point is really the only sure way to tell. We are en route to a full evaluation at this time, as well. Medication is really an individual family decision. Smallworld is right that there is no medication for ODD alone and the behaviors of ODD are probably under cover of another disorder. [/QUOTE]
