So....I have not seen a place for me. I suspect I have oppositional defiant disorder and other things and while it pisses me off....I need help.

I've never been offered a diagnosis by any of the mental health professionals I've seen over the years (too old for it to matter I suppose.) So, anyway, I don't feel as though there is a place for me either. Here are links to 3 articles, from PC's archives, on the subject of ODD:

Haven't read the articles but I suspect people get that diagnosis because they disagree with conventional authorities. We aren't all conventional!

Good luck. I hope you're treated well enough that you don't develop AsPD in adulthood. It's quite a drag. |

ODD is something that is exhibited in childhood. It is something that gets diagnosed in childhood but it doesnt mean an adult cant have it. Often the child is misdiagnosed and overlooked and left to flounder with no diagnosis.
