[quote=Anonymous]ODD is not really a diagnosis. It describes symptoms of behavior but says nothing about the cause. There is often but not always ADHD, ASD, anxiety, or an adjustment disorder that goes along with it. Keep digging into what is driving behavior. I had a child start exhibiting symptoms of ODD at age 8-9. After extensive medical investigation, it turned out the child had sleep apnea which was contributing to an inability to control and regulate emotions and problems with executive function. All symptoms resolved once child received treatment. We did get the child therapy which helped recognize and change beliefs and thought processes. [/quote]
