I was wondering what everyone is doing to "help" their child with their symptoms?

I wouldn't call what we do a therapy, but they are things that have helped. She takes melatonin most nights. We use a weighted blanket to help her sleep. She has a quiet space at daycare (though they don't help her use it.) For outings we have sunglasses and an Mp3 player to help with the lights and sound. It extends the time I go without chasing her, but doesn't make our trips perfect.

I'm hopeful school will bring additional helps in the classroom. I'll be interested to see what other posters have to add for ideas of what to ask for at school.
