[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 352988, member: 3907"] Welcome Desperately Trying, I agree with Smallworld that your daughter might have sensory issues. I second the recommendation of The Out-of-Sync Child by Carol Kranowitz. One thing you might consider in the interim is finding a way to accommodate your daughter's sensory need in a less harmful way. I have sensory issues, and like your daughter, I like to have things very tight. As a little girl, my grandmother suggested that I wear my dance leotard under my clothes. It met my need to have something tight-fitting close to my body, while letting me wear my clothes in a socially acceptable manner. Around the house, sometimes I used to just wear my dance leotard or catsuit, or a bathing suit. But when I left the house, the rule was I had to wear something appropriate over it. I wonder if something like that might work for your daughter as well. I would still follow up with an Occupational Therapist, but as a starting point that might slow down some of the daily battles.
