What is the difference between ADHD and ODD?

likeanangel asked:


Does any one know the differences between the two? I have a 5 yr old that was diagnosed with ADHD and the pills are making him act more high then anything. He is only on 10mg and I was told by another mom at soccer practice a little about ODD. She said that one of her kids has it but didn’t say much about it.
So if anyone can help I would apprecate it thanks.

    Adhd there is hyperness they are misdiagnosed with family and friends and irritate others these behavioral symptoms cause significant difficulties with adhd but instead has another disorder odd seems to control and tendency to many things at school or work and friends and lack of impulse control that again.
