We just went through our 4 hour behavior screening and a few months of therapy. My 4 year old son has severe SPD. I understand the disorder, but I am trying to understand my son. My son is a Sensory Seeker with tactile hyposensitity. We just started this process with therapy and all they have suggested to us is behavior charts. My main concerns with my son is the rough way he plays with kids and our family pets. He does not know personal space or his rough touch. I do not leave him alone with our kitten or dog. His sister usually gets irritated and they fight, the kids at school are mean and fight with him. In public, he can get out of control, at the house, he will jump on the furniture or climb. When He gets mad or overwhelmed he will hit his head with his hands and throw himself on the floor. He hates pants, socks and blankets, I worry at night that he is too cold, he will have goosebumps and cry if I cover him.
I feel a little lost in the way to help him. Please help me understand!
