[QUOTE="agee, post: 330728"] Thanks everyone! re: notebook. I do keep one, kind of. For about a month now. Actually, since we stopped the stims. It is helpful, if only to get my feelings out on paper instead of screaming them. His triggers: saying No, setting boundaries, turning off the TV, transitions. re:Occupational Therapist (OT). Brushing was not recommended. He was/is sensory seeking. Maybe I misunderstood at the time but what I was told they'd do with him was large muscle movement, crashing, slamming, hard pressure, etc. He has always enjoyed a good squeeze. This is one of the things we do often. He also takes daily baths - these are very helpful after school when very wound up. At the time - and still now - we simply could not afford that price tag. Perhaps the neuropsychologist will be able to recommend it and our new insurance plan (a health savings plan) will allow us to include it in the deductible. Our school system does not recognize sensory integration dysfunction as something that effects learning, so they supply no services for it. re: WOW factor in medications - this is precisely what I've been struggling with. Everything so far has just been so-so, but since they kind of control symptoms (specifically, stims) we've stuck with them. But I can't help but think that we've just been wasting time. Anyhoo - thanks again to everyone. I really, really appreciate you all and I appreciate this "place." I would be feeling more lost than usual without finding you. A 16 days 'til our neuropsychologist appointment! [/QUOTE]
