" Nada's in a psych ward "

" I was hoping you'd buy the car for me "

" Schitzoaffective disorder versus BPD "

" Thanksgiving...ugh! "

" Did you feel older than nada as a kid? "

Seriously... and those are just a few... it's a wonder any of us are sane... but

it sure makes sense why we don't share a lot of this with outsiders... and why -

when we do - they usually look at us as if we're speaking jibberish. IT'S NOT

NORMAL!

Ok... back to my day.

you're right, Lynnette, but just about all of us have a wonderful sense of

humor and can laugh at ourselves and our situation once we can step back

from it, and that keeps us sane :-)

I was thinking that " I was hoping you'd buy the car for me " sounds like it has a

bit of country song flavor to it....

Don't mean to offend any country music fans out there!

A Country Car Song for Nada:

I was hoping that you'd buy a car for me,

A brand new Caddy or an SUV,

I know you want the world to think you care,

So buy that car so I can have a spare.

You know I like to drive the streets at night,

Cruise by your house to see if you're all right,

And when my first car breaks, it's more than I can take -

A second car would keep you in my sight.

So pony up the money right away

And sign the papers for that car today!

And when you finally do, I'll ask for something new -

And never, ever let you get away.

You nailed it, ! Awesome. Glad you're holding onto that great sense of

humor with your nada in Crisisland.

I'd be interested to read any research studies that show a correlation between

children diagnosed with oppositional defiant disorder or other childhood

" conduct disorders " who then as teens/young adults go on to be diagnosed with

any of the Cluster B personality disorders.

I'm betting there is a correlation, which is another way of saying that

personality disorder does become evident early in life. My understanding is

that there are separate and distinct terminologies for referring to the various

personality disorders and mental illnesses when the subject is a child, in order

to avoid stigmatizing them or something. I'm not sure why that is; seems to me

that schizophrenia is schizophrenia and psychopathy is psychopathy. Name it and

treat it, and maybe cure it, if possible.

Its like saying, " This child does not have a broken femur, only adults have

broken femurs, so I'm diagnosing this as a " fractured osteostructure. "

I don't get it.

Isn't ODD in children curable with medication?
