Someone with ADD might just not be concentrating on what the authority figures tell him/her to concentrate on and may be focused in other areas. Whether there's a real illness out there or not, the fact is many diagnosis's are done on perfectly healthy children who are just different. For example, I was diagnosed because I didn't like the school work and often simply ignored or refused to do it because I had my own budding artwork to deal with.

Out of every hundred or two diagnosis's of ODD or ADD, only a handful are actually people with an illness, so we're forcing a drug that is essentially crystal meth down the throats of minors going by generalized criteria. Someone with 'ODD' might just be a person who wants control of their own lives and actions and wants to keep to themselves and their own interest.

Defying hierarchy should not be assumed a symptom of ODD. Stealing and violence, maybe, someone with the lack of a moral compass that would otherwise make them empathetic and keep them from purposefully harming others. But the sheer act of disobeying rules does not constitute an illness, and especially in someone in the public schooling system, it could be that..juusst maayybe.... they have an actual moral fucking objection to being controlled. You know, or something craaazyyy like that.

Oppositional Defiant Disorder is a real thing it has effected my life negatively for over 2 years. I am about to be 16 and i have been places many other people will never have to go in their lifetimes. Many people have told me that I need to see a therapist. & now that I have finally realized they were right & i want to go to one, my mom won't even call.

I'm pretty sure ODD is a psychological thing, though I wouldn't use the word 'just'. A lot of the time, it is caused by traumatic experiences experienced as a child. In my case, it was caused by growing up with severe domestic violence happening around me.

hospital. Everyone became afraid of me again. This caused me to develop depression, and I am still recovering from this 3 years later. This disorder isn't a fun one, and no, shortysmagic, it's not a joke.

but the teachers and even my own parents, would distance themselves from me. That felt pretty bad, especially to my 5-year-old self. When I entered high school, I began to gain some control over myself, and when my classmates realised this, I was bullied pretty badly, most likely because they thought they were getting some 'revenge'. I let this happen to me because I was feeling guilty for what I had done to them. After three years, though, I lost my temper again, and sent one of my bullies to

Ok, I just want to elaborate on something said in this video. specifically "ODD children may develop mood or anziety problems"

This is probably less to do with the actual disorder itself, and more to do with how children with ODD are treated. I have been diagnosed with ODD myself, and no children want to be friends with a child with ODD. If I was ever able to make a friend, I would inevitably lose my temper at them and I would be back to having no friends. Everyone, not just the children,
