Sally I noticed that after M started OT, that when she wasn't in "meltdown" constantly that she was doing more "Autistic" things, like flapping and spinning etc etc .... it was weird to see it suddenly, but so much better than being in constand meltdown. In fact now, I notice her flapping prior to getting worked up and its how I know what to do as far as excercises in order to avoid a meltdown!
