Let’s talk #Autism and sensory needs

Raising kids with Autism and Sensory processing issues is challenging. Rewarding…..but challenging.

Between routines, loud noises, bright lights and tactile issues, it’s like a never ending battle. It’s like trying to avoid stepping on an invisible landmine while walking through a field full of them. 

How do you and your family manage? 

What struggles do  you face on a daily basis? Have you found anything that helps your family to avoid those invisible landmines?

I just have to find ways to avoid or manage. Like for loud noises and High Pitch Noises I use earpuds to reduce and filter. The texture issue got both food and Fabics like clothing. For like issues with food there is some food I avoid because of the texture when eating it. I use to have a sensory issue with CRT monitors then LCD came along 🙂 .
