What are your grades like?

If they're shit, SPD is probably the excuse your parents are leaping to.
>>
Why do they think you have SPD, and what on earth do basketball and your friends have to do with it?
>>
Sounds like your parents were on webmd again trying to play doctor on their family.

Disregard. If you really are worried, seek some professional help to give a legit diagnosis.

I have A's in every class except art, I read that someone with SPD will have social problems

Then you're fine. Just tolerate with whatever shit your parents are throwing at you. Nod and smile, let them speak their piece, don't offer anything in return.

If they go so far as to want to send you to a therapist, humor them as long as they are the ones willing to pay for it and drive you over there.

This will pass. Just tolerate it.

Usually, but not always. I had sensory processing issues when I was a kid but they're not a significant problem in my life now. I never really had much in the way of social problems other than being kind of an asshole, but thats just who I am.

If you've got SPD, you'll get Occupational Therapy and maybe learn some strategies that you can use or not. If you don't, you'll just waste some time in OT. Either way, it doesn't matter.
>>
If it's not negatively affecting your day-to-day life or your grades, keep living life the way you always have.

If it is, seek profession opinions on how to proceed.

Do your parents hold the relevant qualifications to make that diagnosis? No? Ignore it.
