    I always thought it’s ODD, that’s usually present in people with ADHD, and not actual ADHD.

    Or is that something else?

      Oppositional Defiant Disorder, I think, is very different with Justice Sensitivity.

      Still very often correlated with ADHD. So are a bunch of other neurodivergencies. Autism, a plethora of eating disorders, nymphomania/satyriasis (of course, anxiety and depression are also common, and SSRI’s take care of that…), and addiction probably the most common.

      There’s a lot of hot takes on this forum that try to correlate neurodivergence with some kind of moral compass.

      It neglects how ideas like justice are social constructs and cultural touchstones, not universal truths and absolutes.

      What’s being described is a dissonance between espoused legal/moral standards and lived ones. But which is “correct”? ADHD doesn’t give you any clarity one way or another.

      Oppositional Defiance Disorder?

      I mean it mostly only occurs in children and it is a controversial diagnosis. Hard to separate poor parenting skills from it.

        Idk man comparing my two kids, both on opposite ends of ADHD (one hyperactive/compulsive, one inattentive)…the hyperactive one is quite ODD and the inattentive one, aside from the ADHD-I tendencies, is probably one of the best behaved kids in the world.

        Though I may be a bit biased.

        I don’t think it’s nurture. I think ODD has a direct correlation to compulsive behaviors in ADHD-H/C kids. It’s probably something they eventually (hopefully, god willing) grow out of…but also something that would probably turn into other dangerous/compulsive behaviors I’d have to keep an eye out for (like hypersexuality or addiction).

        That kid just turned seven and I’m already having nightmares of being a granddad in less than 10 years.
