Hi, and thanks for taking the time to reply to my post. My 5 year old also suffers from sensory issues, as well as Selective Mutism. It was through her struggles that I was able to find out about my own.
There is a Yahoo group for SPD for adults that is a lot more active than this one here.
I am disappointed that I was outright very honest about myself hoping to hear some suggestions or comments, but only a couple of you have replied. I appreciate you and I wish you well. I think the great things about our kids is that they have Parents like us who are trying to help them overcome and deal with these disorders. My Parents had no clue, and still don't, about Autism or any other disorders on the Spectrum. Good luck and thanks again!

I am a mum of a 5 yr old who has recently been diagnosed with SPD. I don't know much about it at the moment but want to know more.

It's sad that so many people have it and not many people know anything about it. I live in the uk and my child's school sent him to be tested. He has seen a paediatrician constantly since birth and I have flagged up loads of things that I now know is to do with SPD but all they could say was he is a normal boy who is very busy.

Ha, they want to live with him, it's like living in the fast lane of the motorway.

I wish there was more action on this site but guess most people busy living through it.
