Sensory processing disorder (SPD) is said to affect 1 in 20 people in our general population. And yet, I still get asked “What is sensory processing disorder?” on an almost daily basis. So many people still don’t know about it.
Today on the podcast, I’m going to be talking all about SPD. We’ll discuss some signs you can look for, as well as the ways that it can affect an individual.
Do you have experience with SPD? Or have you found any help/support that has really worked? Let us know in the comments down below. I love to hear about therapies and support systems that are working for you all.
