    8 yo, adhd/dmdd/odd, and only getting worse.

    He reached all developmental milestones on time, he doesn't have any issues with fabrics or food textures, he actually potty trained himself at 2 years old. He's been "accused" by an outside spectator that doesn't know him of being autistic, but between his doctor and therapist he doesn't show...

    8 yo, adhd/dmdd/odd, and only getting worse.

    I always have hope! It's just when I get the call that my son is throwing chairs and being a danger enough that is classroom has to be evacuated, that's when I'm bawling my eyes out while leaving work screaming to myself "he's never going to get better!"

Is now a good time to call the...

    Thank you! I would like to add his teachers have noted a decrease in violence towards others. He takes out his anger on objects and himself now. He becomes a danger when he starts throwing things, but he does not actually physically attack people anymore. For that, I am proud and relieved, but...

    So I just found this place today, I'm so glad that I did, so I figured I'd just jump right in and post because as much as I appreciate my friends offering their support I just want someone who can relate and goes through this struggle with me. So to start out, my son has had issues with defiance...
