I do that by moving slowly and people usally are in such a rush they get to me befor I can get up. I also do deep breathing exercises when I know before hand that I am goi...

Hey, I was diagnosed just under a year ago. I actually did not go in to get tested for dyspraxia exactly. My mom and my old teacher, who work at the same school, went to this workshop put on by a group called Myndworks. They were given a brief description of what some one with sensory problems has. ...

I have dyspraxia, tourettes syndrome, clinical depression, anxiety, sensory modulation disorder, and probobly other learning disabilities, I am still being assesed(think i spelled that right).

Thanks Shadwell. I have another friend who doesnt drink and we hang out together. It just really rides my nerves some days. People just cant seem to get it in to thier head that some people do not drink.

I used to work with youth before i quit because of school and occupational therapy. But I told my boss about my problems and he did not have any problems with it. HE said just let me know what you need and we can see what we can do! I am hoping to go back and volunteer there soon.

I dont believe SID is technicaly apart of the dyspraxic package, but they often come together. They deal in the same part of the brain. Most neurological problems like ours come with other problems for some reason. More fun for US! *sarcasm*

NOt to mention a little bit of the reefer. I woke up the next morning and felt fine. Like I just had the best sleep ...

They are not reconized yet in the DSM but there is a group tring to be allowed to get more research. I have this condition and suffer from the smae kinds of things your guys do. here a...

The one used in America is DSM-IV. imPErfect Angel, you are going to want to ask for a specific test. Make sure you badger them about it to, I live in the U.S. and in less you give the learning people a swift kick in the rear it can take forever to get things done.

There is a place called Hawk Rock about an hours drive from were I live. It is along the appilation mountains. The App mountains run straight through Pennsylvania and used to be these huge mountains like thirty million years ago or whatever, but now they are just really big hills. Anyway, You go up ...
