Can someone make a suggestion for me. My son completely cannot eat anythingwith "fat". It completely turns him off eating
Meat... or if he sees fat in a meatsauce etc.
he also has crazy gag. My younger son threw a dirty sock
At his face and he threw up coz it was so gross to him.
Same thing he threw up when someone told him the apple juice was really pee. (Even tho he knew it was a joke) Just the thought made him
Throw up. This isn't normal
But is it sensory or what? Anything to do for it?
He also doesn't like anyone in "his space".
On a separate issue he gets angry very easily.
He also can't handle any disappointment. Will either cry or act crazy. Yelling and screaming his disappointment.
None of my others are like this. He is oldest.

First read The Highly Sensitive Child by Elaine Aron.

DIR may be helpful for understanding his sensitives and learning to deal with them appropriately. We had a lot of success with this for an extreamly picky eater/nervous about dirt. For him it was not a sensory/OT issue. It was more of a psychological issue with not wanting to be dirty or eat something gross.

It doesn't sound sensory necessarily (maybe, maybe not). Take him to a child psychologist - sounds like there are some things to be worked on, but I'm not sure what.

I am a believer in horseback riding therapy, I think it works wonders. I have no experience with the above mentioned issues to know if this is particularly recommended for these issues, in this situation - however, my general opinion is that horseback riding therapy is very beneficial.

Would definitely suggest you take him to a licensed psychologist/play therapist. A professional would be able to assess where the issue is stemming from and help the child or help you deal with it in a different way.

sounds like he would be a perfect candidate for OT. They deal with eating issues, textures of food...

OT is good for anxiety and Sensory processing disorder too.
