Question
Dear parents, you mentioned that your child has been performing poorly at work recently and is experiencing symptoms such as insomnia and palpitations, worrying that it might be a sensory integration disorder. What methods can help determine if your child has this condition?
Answer
Based on your description, your child may simply be experiencing behavioral issues due to slower development or slower intellectual growth, rather than sensory integration disorder. As they grow older, these issues usually improve on their own. However, if your child’s symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to take them to the hospital for a professional evaluation and diagnosis. In terms of treatment, in addition to medication, methods such as sensory integration training and behavioral therapy can also be used to improve your child’s condition.
