Visual stim

[Guest guest]

Hello All,

I was wondering if anyone has experienced the same thing as me and could offer

me some help. My son, five years old, has come a long way but his visual stims

have taken over. He loves to go for any tassels and just holds them and dangles

them. He tells me that they are hair or he will actually name them. He loves

to look at the bathroom curtain, I assume because it has subtle blue lines. He

loves dolls with long hair and is fixated on the hair. I feel these actions are

taking over and not allowing him to function. He is so caught up in that and

does not want to do anything else.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
