Just looked through the(self report) tick list of sensory processing challenges I was given at my post diagnosis appointment.

Disliking or craving certain textures
Squinting,blinking or rubbing eyes frequently
Poor eye contact
Difficulty with eye-hand coordination
Poor ball skills
Being clumsy,moving awkwardly
Heavy footed
Rocking
Disturbed by repetitive sounds
Speaking with very loud voice( yet I also get quite a few people asking me to repeat things)
Difficulty filtering out noise
Bumping into things
Poor handwriting
Dropping/spilling things
Engaged in repetitive behaviours/activities
Standing too close to others
Difficulty initiating and completing tasks
Struggling with sequencing activities
Poor organisation
Easily overwhelmed 

On the mild side of things?

    I relate to a lot of that, too. I rarely hear anyone mention that they drop/spill things, but I do that all the time. lol
