10 Oppositional Defiant Disorder Symptoms
Symptom #8: Upsetting Others
Patients with oppositional defiant disorders tend to behave in a way to upset others. This can include their peers or even adults. Mostly seen in children, this intentional behavior can cause many guardians and family members to feel overwhelmed as the affected child will be involved in problems at school and at home. They can also be nasty and unkind to their peers causing withdrawal of their peers.
Parents who think that their child may be suffering from oppositional defiant disorder should seek medical opinion or talk to the school counsellor to obtain a referral to the proper health professional.
