[quote=Anonymous]I am a big believer in testing, I think you learn so much. I was amazed at how much could be broken down into discrete aspects of my child's development. I will say that my child, who was similar to what you described, was not ultimately diagnosed with ASD though I fully expected him to be. His most obvious issue when he was younger was anxiety. When we treated the anxiety, all of the sensory issues disappeared. I mean, obviously everyone has their quirks, right? But the sensory stuff went from bring something that kept him from doing things to not seeming to register at all. He was also years later diagnosed with a severe LD, which in retrospect of course was likely a big cause of the anxiety. I am not saying that this is what is going on with your child. I am just saying that identifying issues and treating them were hugely beneficial for my child.[/quote]
