[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 263616, member: 1550"] I could be wrong, but your post reeks of a teen who is a serious drug abuser. I wouldn't even focus on an ODD diagnosis, which in my opinion is probably wrong anyway. And pot doesn't make kids wild and out of control, although pot is not a good thing. Maybe she does more drugs when the boyfriend is around? But even two rages a week is not normal. She could be using less when he's not around, but sounds like something is still going on. My daughter started using at twelve (yes, me too...I didn't know twelve year olds used, especially not MY daughter). She quit at nineteen, but there was a lot of hell we went through in between. I would maybe give her a surprise drug test when she is acting her worst. My daughter put holes in the wall and raged up a storm when she was taking drugs. We didn't know she was doing it though. We thought she had bipolar. She doesn't. Therapists are easy for teens to fool. Mine did. My guess is she's taking something like speed (my daughter did) or even coke. I would try to get a handle on it now because pretty soon she'll be too old for you to do anything. At the end of the day, we had to make our daughter leave and she had to get off drugs on her own. But it wasn't until she was off of drugs that we found out how deep she'd been involved in them. Please try to get her help, but also realize that unless she wants help, it won't do any good.
