I was reading about stimming last night (turns out I stim almost constantly, who knew) and was fascinated to learn that it can be connected with Sensory Processing Disorder. After reading about SPD, I was able to recognize a few of the symptoms to a minor extent in myself. While I don't struggle with sensory info, I do think I may have a mild form of SPD nonetheless.
I had been noticing strange itching which has been gradually decreasing, very slowly, over the years. There are no signs of any infection, rash, or any skin discoloration, so I can't fathom why I feel itchy. When I read about SPD, it made me think maybe it is the cause of my itchiness.
Do any of you with SPD or autism feel the same way? Does anyone know if there's any basis for connecting SPD and asymptomatic discomforts such as itching?
