[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 523612, member: 1233"] It was just recently that I even heard the term auditory figure ground, but it is a problem I have struggled with since childhood. it gets worse as I get older. It is also a cause of migraines - my brain cannot handle figuring out the difference between background, even music played softly si a problem, and someone speaking to me. I can't handle both. Quite probably she has some degree of sensory integration disorder and this is a super hopeful diagnosis, in my opinion. One therapy has been PROVEN to change how tusually tell people that because they look at me funny. You MuST be taught hwo to do the therapy by an Occupational Therapist (OT) because you can cause huge problems if you do it improperly, but it takes very little time to do it properly, you just do it every few hours for several weeks/months, and then taper down as directed by the Occupational Therapist (OT). There are a lot of other therapies also. We have books that help a lot of parents - frst is 'the explosive child, by ross greene - sorry my shift button is not working well. For sensory problems, the out of sync child by kranowitz is awesome and the out of sync child has fun is packed with activities to provide the sensory diet that can be super helpful. go with the activities your child likes - generally those are the ones they actually need - these can calm and soothe them and help hugely with activities. it did with all of mine, and with the kids in my odlest's sp ed class back in elem school. again, sorry for the capitalization deficits. this keyboard is cranky and with a laptop it is hard to change it out.
