Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) Support Group
Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) an ongoing pattern of disobedient, hostile, and defiant behavior toward authority figures that goes beyond the bounds of normal childhood behavior.

The dr had told me if thought Tre' needed to go to the mental hospital to call and see if a bed was open.
Well over the past week it has gotten to the point where is very, very aggresive and destructive. So I called the nurse I talked with told me he would be admitted.
And told me what to pack for him and he would be staying 3 to 7 days.
It is a 2.5 hr drive to the hospital.
Well I had to wait on hubby to get home from work and leave.
We get down there wait about 2 hrs then we are called back for an eval. The therapist there tells us he isn't qualified to be accepted. I ask why not ? (cause 3 drs have told me i should have already had him at that exact hospital) they tell me cause he isn't attempting to kill himself or any one else.
His dr. now has Tre' on a mood stablizer.
What a day !

Was it one of those Charter type hospitals? Or Behavioral Health systems? If it was then I understand completely. Many in my ODD support group have been disappointed in their policies. So sorry.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
