[quote=Anonymous]If he is this angry all the time he reallly needs to be evaluated. He could have any number of things- anxiety, a mood disorder, ODD... or maybe something completely different. You can't begin to get him the help he needs until you know what you are dealing with. My son has "unspecified" ODD (6) - he is not as angry as yours is - but he has his moments. He also has ADHD and anxiety. We are working with a behavior therapist but have also been tying variouss medications- we were on stimulants for the ADHD and they just made him worse- more irritable. Now we are trying Zoloft to see if the mood component is what is hindering him the most. I know it's really hard and exhausting. When my kid is at his worse I try to remind myself that most of the time he is not doing it on purpose- he has sensory processing issues as well. I think they all contribute to his behavior.[/quote]
