Hey guys. Lately, I've been going to a pyhcologist, and he has told me that I have ODD, or opositinal defiance disorder, which basically means I'm more prone to not mind my parents. Lately, I've been sneaking behind my parents' backs and lying to them, and as a result I've had my anime taken away, my radio taken away, my TV privelleges taken away, and my internet privelleges taken away. I know I'm not minding them by coming to the site, but I just thought I'd get on to let y'all know this. Please pray that I can get better.

Also, please pray that my dad won't be so strict on me, that I can learn to behave, that my dad won't slap me or grab me, and that I can earn more trust from my folks. Thanks, guys.

Another thing I want to point out is that I have been kicked out of school for the rest of the year for a mere joke. What I did, was that one day at school, I was playing around with one of my friends, and he kinda aggravated me, so I jokingly said, "You're going on "my list"," and I got out a piece of paper and wrote at the top of it "My List". Then I just started adding all of these random names, including the names of some friends, bullys, and anyone whose name I could think of. Then I threw the piece of paper away. Then, a few days later, the principal was asking me about after I had forgotten all about it, and before I knew it, I was kicked out of school.

Now I am working on my school work from home using a computer program called NovaNET. Please pray that I can do well with this, cause I haven't been so far.

Also, please believe me when I say that I'd never kill anyone ever in a million years. I was just joking when I did this. Also, I also think it'd be wise to point out that part of the reason the principal felt prone to kick me out of school, I think, is that I a bully victim, and was kind of a loner.

Frankly, I think my principal overreacted a little bit. I'd NEVER hurt anyone for the sake of hurting them. NEVER!

I'll take a wild stab in the dark and guess your American. How exactly did he find out anyway?

Though I don't believe you have a disorder, I'll be praying for you.

wow. that's rough. I'll be praying for you. and I agree, sometimes people can overreact a bit. now, in my opinion if you had a history of violence maybe I could see him doing something like that, but if that was all you did for a joke, I don't get why it was such a big deal.

Wow... I'm sorry. I'll be praying for you! D:

Yeah, I agree, Bakura. I'm not a violent person at all. Not only did the principal overreact, but the children at school thought I worshiped Satan just because I like heavy metal. They thought Rage Against the Machine was scary music! I alsways tried telling them I'm christian, but they never believed me.

Oh, and thanks guys. Your prayers mean alot.

Oh, and my principal found out about all of this after rumors started spreading about the whole thing, and then after the rumors, people (mostly girls judging from the ink colors) started writing her notes about the whole thing. And yes I am American.

All I can say is that I wish Columbine had never happened. Then they wouldn't have cameras at schools or cops.

Sorry about the triple post, but I just wanted to also point out, as some of you may already know, that my dad can be VERY strict at times.

Sometimes I think they label simple things as a "disorder" when it's usualy such a common thing (like a teen trying to rebel against strict parents etc).

They... this is the same group that labeled all my disorders as common things. God said your to respect your parents so try for Him. That might make it easier to consentrate on doing what they tell you(even if you think it's to strict ;) )

Unfortunately though, sometimes I think my dad is kinda growing me away from God. :(

Also, sometimes whenever I screw up just the tiniest bit, my dad starts on me and calls me names, like mental and crazy, and threatens to slap me if I say one word to him.

Thanks for the prayers, though. I appreciate them.

Oh, and the other day my dad took all of my anime to Goodwill. :( He had already taken out all of my anime out of my room, but there were three graphic novels he didn't find that I hid. When he found them, he ripped them in half, and took everything else to Goodwill. Who knows though? Maybe God wants me to have a better collection? Anyway, please pray that my dad will get them back for me.

Also, my dad took my guitars out of my room as well, and is keeping them permantly, because I wasn't practicing when he saw me. Now his new rule is once he takes something out of my room, I'll never get them back. Please pray that he will give them back to me, and that I'll practice better, and reach my fullest potential on them, which is where I should be after 6 years of playing.

read first couple of posts then I just went ahead to posting this

I just got thru most of the disorders in my pshycology class (I go to some college classes at my high school, and psychology is one of them) and I havent studied a disorder that causes you to lie unintentionally, constantly, and unconsciously (well, actually there are a couple, but its like a side dish to a some BIG disorders, which I doubt you have). Your still a kid (just like me) and its only natural that something like this happens sometime in our lives. This ODD thing, every kid gets it sometime in their life. Its too normal to be called a disorder. I would almost call it a disorder if you nvr had a time in life where you were like this towards your parents, even slightly. Ill pray for you tho as it seems your getting owned by lots of ppl all at once >.<.

Pretty much everyone around u is overeacting, starting with the principal, then your dad (unless hes always been like that) is panicking because his son just got kicked out of school, and thus he is probably interpreting that as he is/was not a good parent. So he is now hoping that by threatening you, he will have better chances at teaching you to change as your reaching an age where you mature very fast from kid to adult and being a "bad kid" would have an affect on that. Also Im unaware of your grades, but they may also have an affect on this if they aren't meeting your dads expectations.

Some tips I would give.
As much as you might hate everyone for doing this to you, don't hate back, just keep praying (we'll help). Try to see if you can meet some of your dads expectations (it may be abuse, but something has to cause it, your dad seems to be panicking quite a bit, unless hes always been like that, which then would be a "disorder" gained from childhood on his part). And also, try to avoid getting into any more trouble because even tho your pretty innocent, your still in a mess I would hate to be in.

As I said, Ill pray for you because it just seems like you got caught in one of those tornados where you get all the trash that comes with it. I do hope you get out of it soon because ive had similar, yet less intense events happen to me before, and I truly, TRULY hated those times in life.

... Geez thats one long post <_< hope you find some help in it somewhere.

Thanks for the advice. Also, my grades have always been good, but lately they have been falling off a little. Also, thanks for the prayers.

yeah. I always got good grades too. once I started homeschooling, if I got even one c *79% or lower* my parents made me do everything over again, cause C's were never good enough...they were like failures to them....so, are your grades like that?
