SPD and autism

by kat

Is SPD the same with autism? Or is a child diagnosed to have sensory dysfunction an autistic?

Sensory Processing Disorder and Autism are not the same. Many children with autism have SPD however many children with SPD definitely aren't autistic. My son has SPD but isn't autistic and several others I know, but my sister's nephew is autistic and has several similar sensory problems as my son. Hope that helps!
