conduct disorder

I'm not sure if I'm posting to the right place but this is the only place I found which would allow me to post. I have a 7 year old boy (we also have other kiddos) who was recently diagnosed with Conduct Disorder. He is currently on his first stay at a treatment center to get some help. He...

Hi, I’m new here. Been reading and lurking while learning more about my son (and lets be honest, coming to accept/process it all) so here I am finally posting. My signature has the basics for now :) And I’d like to share about my son – because I can’t really opening talk about it with others...

My 16 year old son has been getting worse. He has been diagnosed with ADD and has taken Ritalin in the past, no help. Recently started Wellbutrin. Not helping. He is failing half of his classes and now he doesn't seem to care about anything. He has friends at school but doesn't do anything with...

My daughter is 19 and has been stealing since she was 17. First it was stores then from me. I have to begin by explaining how this hurts and how deep the pain goes. Our house was broken into for over a year off and on i lost pretty much everything. I was diagnosed with ptsd. I went into a deep...

Anybody have any experience with this? My DS's psychiatrist recommended it due to his violence towards me and general lack of respect for me or acknowledgement of consequences/rules applying to him. In our local area, one does the course partially over a weekend, and then through six weekly...

I have a 15 year old daughter and I just can't cope anymore. We have had years of problems with her and feel like we have tried everything and nothing works! Even her social woker thinks she is a nasty piece or work. She shows no remorse for anything she has done and makes me feel like the...

Hi all. My grandson has a new psychiatrist. He wants to do this type of therapy, only with Minecraft. It's one-on-one therapy. It seems really cool, but wondered what experiences you might have had.

Hello to all, Im new here, I really hope someone can relate to me because i truly have never seen a kid behave as bad as my 4 year old son, he is very manipulative, he wont listen to anything I say, he yells at me, hits me (in public or anywhere it doesnt matter), he wont listen to any basic...

its 3:30 am as usual and I'm awake on my phone on the couch by myself. Today was such a s&$@ storm. My son has been on a rant since lord I can't remember since we all woke up. It never ever ended until he fell asleep. This all sux and feels so blah! And miserable and time consuming for all of...

I joined 4 yrs ago. We went for counseling and things seemed to really improve a lot. She hurts animals. She doesn't torture and kill them but she kicks them and smacks them. She does it when she gets impatient and as a 16 yr old she's impatient. Last time I was here she had broken one of...

Hi All, I am 36 years old and married, with a 14 year old step daughter "Emily", and my wife and I have been married for 8 years. I've known Emily since she was 4 years old, and everything has been pretty "normal" until recently. My wife travels for work sometimes and was away one particular...

Our daughter was very belligerant the moment she turned 14. We took her to therapy and the diagnosis was conduct disorder. After destruction of property (putting holes in the walls) we had her arrested for incorrigibility. Nothing else was working. She graduated from high school but did not...

Hello everyone. I am new to this site, this is my first post. I have read a lot of similar stories on here about kids that sound like I could have wrote them myself about my son. Unfortunately I have only seen lots of new parent posts with the details of the problems but no follow ups with...

Hi, I have been reading the posts on here off and on for about a week, since I stumbled upon the site googling what the doctors. have said is my daughter's diagnosis. I just wanted to talk about it to someone. This may be lengthy, I am sorry in advance. Our daughter was always a difficult child...

My 12, almost 13 year old daughter just called me a ****ing stupid ***** and hopes I burn in hell. All because I locked my bedroom door so not to have her come in and wake me again. Sometimes I feel she has figuratively beaten my love for her out of me. The disrespectful and mean behavior...
