This is a book of poems about sensory processing disorder. I hope someone can relate to this, after all, that's the reason I'm writing this! :)

Don't Say That.

Don't say I'm just being over dramatic

Don't say I'm overreacting

Don't say I'll get over it

Don't say it's all in my head (no duh, of course it's all in my head because it's a neurological disorder)

Don't say it's my fault

Don't say I cause myself to feel like this

Don't say I should act normal because I don't "look" like I have anything wrong with me

Don't say "it's because she has spd" (yes- my life is greatly affected by this disorder, but not everything I do revolves around it)

Don't say "I understand what that feels like" (No. You don't understand what it feels like to have spd unless you have spd.)

Don't say I'll get used to it

Don't say I'm just "being picky"

Don't say I'm being manipulative

And definitely do NOT say that I'm doing anything for attention. Because I'm not. What kind of person would fake something like that for attention?
