Hi guys! I am new here and kind of nervous. New to all of this SPD stuff and even though it's nerve wracking, I find it extremely intriguing and interesting. I am literally taking my 6 year old daughter to an OT today for the first time and she is being evaluated. So although she has not been diagnosed yet, her counselor is pretty sure she has SPD and after talking with the OT, she's pretty sure she does as well, with just what I talked to her about. With doing all of this research, I've come to the conclusion that I to have SPD and after doing my own tests and asking family and friends if they feel the same things I've diagnosed myself!! LOL So of course, it may not actually be true, but it's good to know I can come here and maybe talk about things to cope with my quirks so to speak. Anyway, I definitely am interested in how you all have been diagnosed and as adults what steps you have taken. I definitely worry that my quirks are an interruption to not only myself, but my family and I worry at times that it is the cause of most of the stress I seem to put on others, mainly my hubby and my children. So I want to help this somehow. In the meantime, I'm dealing with my daughters quirks with the realization that I have most of the same ones and don't even know how to help her since I can't help myself. Does any of this make sense? DO you have any suggestions as to what I should do??
