Sensory processing disorder

sensory processing disorder (shortened term SPD) is when you are either overstimulated or understimulated easily when it comes to certain senses. when you are overstimulated on a certain sense, you may be more sensitive to it in general and it can stop you from doing certain activities. when you are understimulated on a certain sense, you may need more of that sense to process it correctly. the things you can be understimulated or overstimulated on vary from person to person, which is why one person with SPD can be extremely sensitive to sound while another can be less sensitive to sound than average, which is why you should not self diagnose SPD (or any mental disorder) because the symptoms highly vary. The things you can be sensitive or non sensitive to include but don't limit to: Sight, Smell, Hearing, Taste, Touch, Balance, Light, ECT. If you suspect that you may have SPD or any other mental disorder, stop reading this and self diagnosing, go talk to someone about it, and get a diagnostic AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
