Emotional and Other Impacts of Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD)
http://www.sinetwork.org/aboutspd/impacts.html

Children with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) may suffer from anxiety, depression, aggression, or other behavioral problems. They may have problems with motor skills and other skills needed for school success. They may also be socially isolated and suffer from low self-esteem. Often they get a reputation for being a "difficult child."

These difficulties put these children at high risk for many emotional, social, and educational problems, including the inability to make friends or be a part of a group, a poor self-concept, academic failure, and being labeled as clumsy, uncooperative, belligerent, disruptive, or out of control. Parents may be blamed for their children’s behavior by people who are unaware of this "hidden handicap."

Effective treatment for SPD is available, but far too many children with these disorders are misdiagnosed and not properly treated.
