[quote=Anonymous]OP here: I'm questioning the diagnosis because it hasn't lasted for more than 6 months. It's only been since school started in September, and it seems to have improved since the switch. DSM-5 criteria for diagnosis of ODD show a pattern of behavior that: Includes at least four symptoms from any of these categories — angry and irritable mood; argumentative and defiant behavior; or vindictiveness Occurs with at least one individual who is not a sibling Causes significant problems at work, school or home Occurs on its own, rather than as part of the course of another mental health problem, such as a substance use disorder, depression or bipolar disorder Lasts at least six months[/quote]
