[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 496620, member: 11791"] Well... yes and no. Developmental disorders and conditions overlap quite a bit. Its sort of like one big desert, and medical people try and draw lines in the sand to differentiate... Because, there is a wide spread of issues and challenges... and combinations. So... If you are Aspie or Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), then it is "not uncommon" for there to be sensory issues, coordination issues, and a raft of other things. BUT... You can have Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) and not be anywhere close to Aspie. You can have Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) and Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) and ADHD and not be Aspie... but ALL of those can be "part of" the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Aspie dxes. Officially, if you are Aspie/Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), the other dxes don't really apply because they are "part of" the definition. But... not all Aspies have all the traits, so it helps to get specific. Does that make more sense? [/QUOTE]
