Individuals with developmental disorders often exhibit various
behavioural issues that can impact their daily lives. Common problems include
repetitive behaviours, such as hand-flapping or rocking, often seen in Autism
Spectrum Disorder (ASD). These behaviours can be self-soothing but may appear
unusual to others. Aggression, self-injury, and tantrums can also occur,
especially when the individual feels overwhelmed or frustrated by their
inability to communicate effectively.
Impulsivity and hyperactivity are hallmark symptoms of
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), leading to difficulties in
maintaining focus, following instructions, and completing tasks. These
behaviours can result in academic and social challenges, as well as
disciplinary issues.
Behavioural issues in developmental disorders can stem from sensory
sensitivities, where individuals might overreact to certain sounds, textures,
or lights. Consistent routines and structured environments can help mitigate
these behaviours. Interventions such as behavioural therapy, occupational
therapy, and, in some cases, medication can provide strategies to manage and
reduce these behavioural challenges effectively.
