It has to be clear. It has to be simple. It has to be visual. (Photo credit time Autism Tank)

Sometimes there is huge concern about kids missing school time due to added classes/lessons/therapy or “chill out time” during school hours. To me mental health is WAY more important than anything.....the rest will be learnt when the time is right.

I have been talking a lot lately about issues with sensory processing and thought I would post this visual which includes many of the symptoms.
In order for an official diagnosis in any of these areas functional impairment must be present....this basically means if functioning (getting dressed, going to school/work etc) is difficult or not happening then this is “seen as causing functional impairment by the disorder or behaviour”.
It’s also important to note that some or all of us have many traits that are present in diagnostic tools..... however we are able to live or function with it in our everyday lives. It may need assistance or other treatments like behavioural intervention but may not get an official diagnoses.
I’m here if you need a chat or ask questions.
