[QUOTE="Malika, post: 529206, member: 11227"] Yes, that makes sense to me, lovelyboy. I think J is DEFINITELY sensory seeking. He loves having his hair cut, for example! And for me it is not beyond the bounds of possibility that his hyperactivity is motivated by this. He will never just sit and eat a meal, for example. It is as though that is too boring for him. He has to be touching toys, spinning things, etc as he eats (drives me mad :)) That would also explain why he can attend and concentrate when he has to... However, getting anyone here to understand that is another matter. I might bring it up with the psychomotricien he sees once a week - a really nice man that J seems to get on well with. They play games together to get J to concentrate and he says to me that lately J is doing really well and making lots of progress; he says that in his eyes J is ADHD but with mild attention deficit... I wonder if he knows anything about the sensory stuff? A psychomotricien is kind of on the way to an Occupational Therapist (OT), so sensory things may mean something to him... I do feel as if parts of the puzzle are kind of getting clearer, even if I still don't have a specific label to pin on him other than the ADHD one which feels... approximative. [/QUOTE]
